Two components are required as input to convert SatWind GOES AMV data from BUFR dump to IODA format

A mapping file
A Python script to add two derived variables under ObsValue group and two new variables under ObsType group

ObsValue/windEastward
ObsValue/windNorthward
ObsType/windEastward
ObsType/windNorthward

The Python script can handle the following:

Use of MPI
create_obs_group --- for script backend application in IODA
create_obs_file --- for bufr2netcdf application

One temporary stand-alone test script (shell) is placed under ./ush/test for testing the BUFR conversion in two ways:

BUFR to IODA conversion in IODA script backend (obs group created in memory)
BUFR to IODA conversion using bufr2netcdf.x utility from bufr-query (the netcdf output is in IODA format).
