Continuous Deployment

Any changes pushed to the main branch, will be deployed to https://kayaking-aa6c532cb1b2.herokuapp.com/

Config files

The backend config file (backend/config.yaml) contains information such as the variable names in the grib files being accessed.

It also contains the way the services are deployed. Currently for wind and tide only grib is supported.

To see the variable names for any grib file download the NetCDF file viewer here https://downloads.unidata.ucar.edu/netcdf-java/ then run java -Xmx1g -jar toolsUI.jar or replace the filename with the tool file name.
