Hi
ff2pp tries to work out the file type when converting UM files to PP format, in this case it fails to do this. You can specify the file type on the command line, i.e. do this
ff2pp -ieee64bs xjsdo.pp7 test.pp
Note the data from this file is on a variable resolution grid and the lat/lon values are stored in headers in the UM file, these headers are not available in PP files, hence the converted file will not have correct values for latitude and longitude.

Hi Carly,
I tried,
This is a vn7.8 file and I found that it works OK with vn8.2 and 8.6 files.
The file looks OK in xconv. Try recreating it. Or since it is only the orography field, perhaps you could get it from another source.
Regards
Willie
