Remote Server Access

The IDV includes the catalog data chooser/dashboard (shown below) with the application.

Many common datasets from a variety of sources are "hardcoded" in the application. You can use these, or define your own.

Level II and Level III files are supported for remote access.

The example below illustrates REMOTE access to an ADDE server maintained by Unidata/UCAR.
Note the "Radar" tab is selected on the left navigation bar of the Data Chooser.

Local Disk Access

The IDV can also access LOCAL files via the data chooser/dashboard (shown below).

Level II and Level III files are supported for local access.

Note the "Files" tab is selected on the left navigation bar of the Data Chooser.
