BUFR data files are used extensively in the meteorological community to exchange all manner of
data, but most importantly satellite images. More information: http://www.knmi.nl/opera.
The BUFR files are assumed to contain the image for one parameter and one time. The name of the
parameter is encoding as the "X" and "Y" fields of the corresponding record, in particular: 1000X+Y.
The reason for this is that the names as reported by BUFR utilities are contained in external
configuration files. It is easier to use the X and Y fields (see the documentation for this type
of files) than to distill the names from the configuration files.
The name of the import type is "BUFR".
