Get BOM Radar Locations
BOM maintains a shapefile of radar site names and their geographic
locations. For ease, we’ll just use the .dbf file part of the shapefile
to extract the product codes and radar locations. The file is available
from BOM’s anonymous FTP server with spatial data
ftp://ftp.bom.gov.au/anon/home/adfd/spatial/, specifically the DBF
file portion of a shapefile,
ftp://ftp.bom.gov.au/anon/home/adfd/spatial/IDR00007.dbf.
