Adding a Watermark to an Image

This is a common need – how do I add a watermark to an image I have created?

As it became obvious that other sites were not indicating where content was being leeched from, it was clear a another look at doing this was required.

This shell script is designed to loop through a number of RASP images and overlay a watermark to make aware where it has come from.

Soundings Replot Utility for RASP

Having been asked to add some RASP sounding plots in Northern Ireland, it became apparent that a script to just test just the ones added would make life easier (than replotting sounding by hour from the command line).Then it became an idea to just have this to replot all soundings (as potentially to do them later on a differnet host).

The script below is the result, fixed for one model with fixed start end points. These can of course be extended/changed as approriate.

#!/bin/bash
# Script expects a model as the first parameter,
# e.g. "sound_plot.sh EI12"
# Also expects "replot" to be available in $HOMEDIR/GM and it works

# Set where the RASP setup lives
HOMEDIR=/home/rasp

# Set where are commands are ... useful to put full path if run
# from a cron job. Ensure they exist, or add a check for it.
REPLOT_CMD=$HOMEDIR/GM/replot
SEQ_CMD=/usr/bin/seq

# Check we got a model and date to plot
if [ $# -eq 2 ]
then
echo "Using input as '$1'"
echo "Using '$REPLOT_CMD' to replot"
echo "Using date as '$2'"
else
echo "Provide a model to try. E.g. UK12 2015-04-03"
exit
fi

case $1 in
EI12) # We'll do just the one here
# Set the start and end sounding number (as in soundingXX)
val1=1
val2=19
SEQ1=$(SEQ_CMD -s " " $val1 $val2)
# Set the start end of hours to use
val3=7
