(2)    To indicate whether the originating/generating center is a sub-center or not, the following procedure should be applied:
         In BUFR Edition 3, use octet 5 of section 1 with the following meaning:
         Code figure
         0                  Not a sub-center, the originating/generating center is the center defined by octet 6 in section 1 of BUFR edition 3.
         1 to 254       Identifier of the sub center which is the originating/generating center. The identifier of the sub-center is allocated by the associated center, which is defined by octet 6

                             in section 1 of BUFR edition 3. The sub-center identifiers should be supplied to the WMO Secretariat by the associated center(s) for publication.

NOTES:

 

(1)           References to countries in brackets indicate the manufacturing location rather than the country using the instrument.

(2)           Some of the radiosondes listed are no longer in use but are retained for archiving purposes.

(3)           The alphanumeric code format reports only 2 digits, and the first digit for BUFR is identified from the date: the first digit is 0 if the introduction of the

                radiosonde for observation was before the date of 30 June 2007, or 1 otherwise. Entries in the second part of the table (after 99), which are declared

                “Vacant” can be used for new radiosondes because the 2 digits number was originally attributed to sondes, which are no longer used. This system has been

                adopted to accommodate reporting in TEMP traditional alphanumeric code format up to the time BUFR is fully used for radiosonding reports.

Note: Within the ranges 000 to 849 and 870 to 998, even deciles indicate polar orbiting satellites and odd deciles indicate geostationary satellites. The range from 850 to 869 shall be used to indicate combinations of satellites, so the aforementioned decile rule does not apply to values in this range.
