Welcome!

Welcome to the AWIPS Technical Library!

Here you'll find a One-Stop site for all publicly available AWIPS II-related materials.  This includes:

  • AWIPS II software (binaries and source code)

  • AWIPS II documentation & reports

For first-time users, we recommend you start by clicking on the "Wiki" link in the menubar above this portlet.

We hope you find this information useful.  This site will be updated from time to time as new information and documents become available.  If you have any questions, feel free to post them in the AWIPS Technical Library Forum (click on "Forums" near the top of this page).

IMPORTANT: Effective 12/5/14 new URL for the AWIPS Technical Library

The NWS Virtual Lab, which hosts the AWIPS Technical Library, has migrated to a new host as of 12/5/14.  The URL HAS CHANGED. 

The new location for the AWIPS Technical Library is:

https://vlab.noaa.gov/web/awips-technical-library/home

The old URL (at nws.weather.gov/innovate) will automatically redirect you to the new URL.  Please update your bookmarks -- this automatic redirection is only expected to be in effect for approximately one month.

The new location offers improvements to the site, as well as much better rendering on mobile phones and tablets.

If you have any questions about the migration or notice any issues post-migration, please raise them in the Forum section of the AWIPS Technical Library community.
