      No. BFINT is a /POST1 command, so the model must be solved and a .rth file must be available.
      An alternative method to interpolate data between models is using the mapping option of the *MOPER command. Mapping is done using four arrays and the “*MOPER,parR,par1,MAP” option. The required arrays are:
      1.three-column array that stores the coordinates of the input data.
      2.array that stores the data (e.g., temperature) that corresponds to the coordinates stored in the first array.
      3.three-column array that stores the designation coordinates for the interpolated data.
      4.array where the “*MOPER, parR, par1, MAP” command writes the interpolated data.
