API documentation published

GribStream documentation is now live for getting started and exploring endpoints.

On December 6, 2024, we published the initial GribStream API documentation.

What's in the docs

  • A quick overview of models, parameters, and grids.
  • The timeseries endpoint for forecast history and the runs endpoint for single model runs.
  • Query controls for coordinates vs. grid, from/until windows or explicit timesList, and as-of time-travel.
  • Support for CSV, JSON, and NDJSON outputs for downstream pipelines.
  • Expressions and filters to compute derived fields and return only the events you care about.

Suggested workflows

  • Backtesting: use as-of with historical runs to avoid future data leakage.
  • Event detection: filters make it easy to scan for threshold crossings or extremes.
  • Large extractions: stream NDJSON for long time ranges and many points.
