MARS
If you have access to ECMWF systems you can retrieve test data from MARS archive using keywords:
Code Block |

class=mc expver=97109701 stream=gfas type=ga |
Or the definitive production data, using keywords:

class=mc expver=0010 stream=gfas type=ga |
FTP dissemination
The near real-time test data (experiment 9704) is already available through ECPDS FTP dissemination systems in this directory:
...
You can use your normal FTP account to access the data.
On the XX January 22 January 2019, we will stop pushing pushing test data data (9704) to the ECPDS FTP dissemination directory and start to push the production data (0010) to the same directory. This change will be almost transparent for users. The only noticeable differences will be:
- Sea points in all data field fields will have value 0, as a land-sea mask will be applied to them.
- Users retrieving grib files will notice that attribute "experiment Version Number" will be 0010 instead of 9704:
