      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;NCL&lt;/strong&gt; — the &lt;strong&gt;NCAR Command Language&lt;/strong&gt; — is the scripting language we use to drive image generation from scientific Fortran codes. It is the standard tool for turning numerical output (wave fields, atmospheric grids, sea-state results) into the charts and rendered images downstream consumers rely on. NCL is no longer actively developed by NCAR, which makes expert support for existing NCL pipelines especially valuable.&lt;/p&gt;&#xA;&lt;h2 id=&#34;where-we-add-value&#34;&gt;Where we add value&lt;a class=&#34;td-heading-self-link&#34; href=&#34;#where-we-add-value&#34; aria-label=&#34;Heading self-link&#34;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;&#xA;&lt;ul&gt;&#xA;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Writing and maintaining NCL scripts&lt;/strong&gt; that turn Fortran numerical output — including &lt;a href=&#34;https://fortran.sh3d.com.au/projects/wrf/&#34;&gt;WRF&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&#34;https://fortran.sh3d.com.au/projects/wii/&#34;&gt;WII&lt;/a&gt; — into production-quality visuals.&lt;/li&gt;&#xA;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Keeping legacy NCL pipelines working&lt;/strong&gt; now that NCL itself is end-of-life: pinning compatible versions, packaging dependencies, and documenting the build.&lt;/li&gt;&#xA;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Integrating NCL&lt;/strong&gt; into the build, run, and reporting pipeline so visuals are produced automatically rather than by hand.&lt;/li&gt;&#xA;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Reproducible imaging&lt;/strong&gt; — same input data, same script, same image, every time, including months later.&lt;/li&gt;&#xA;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Recovering and re-running&lt;/strong&gt; historic NCL scripts against archived data when somebody needs a regenerated chart from years ago — see &lt;a href=&#34;https://fortran.sh3d.com.au/expertise/legacy-data/&#34;&gt;Expertise → Legacy data&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/li&gt;&#xA;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Migrating NCL outputs&lt;/strong&gt; to modern delivery surfaces (web, REST, dashboards) — see &lt;a href=&#34;https://fortran.sh3d.com.au/docs/api/&#34;&gt;Examples → REST API&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/li&gt;&#xA;&lt;/ul&gt;&#xA;&lt;h2 id=&#34;talk-to-us&#34;&gt;Talk to us&lt;a class=&#34;td-heading-self-link&#34; href=&#34;#talk-to-us&#34; aria-label=&#34;Heading self-link&#34;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;&#xA;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&#34;mailto:simon@unisolve.com.au&#34;&gt;simon@unisolve.com.au&lt;/a&gt; or&#xA;&lt;a href=&#34;mailto:scottp@dd.com.au&#34;&gt;scottp@dd.com.au&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>
