<li>Wind data in GRIB format can now be imported in the "Wind" sub-tab of the "Tracked Races" tab
in the <tt>AdminConsole</tt>. When one or more races are being tracked, with a tracking time
interval that includes the time point(s) for which the GRIB data is valid, the wind data at
the resolution of the GRIB file is added as separate wind fixes with type "WEB" to the race(s)
selected, or to all races if no race is selected.<p>
Multiple GRIB files can be specified; this is even necessary if GRIB sources are being used where
the so-called "U" and "V" or "speed" and "direction" components, respectively, are provided in
separate files. The importer will merge the GRIB sources to produce wind readings with true
wind direction and true wind speed.
Note that large GRIB files can result in many wind fixes being added to the WEB source. Make sure
the GRIB files you use are adequate in resolution and region as well as adequate in time. Obtaining
a forecast 72h in the future makes little sense for an in-shore race starting in 30min.
