Hi Jim,

No worries. I've been busy too ;-)

>meeting?!
Yup, I'll be there.

I agree.

OK.

It was my fault for not getting back to you folks when I first noticed way
back in February that they were missing. No excuses for that lapse...

I understand. The wildfire ABBA products are (at least were) used by
our users in the southern hemisphere (mostly Brazil), and the chair of
our Users Committee had at one time requested that additional products
like this be created from GOES-West. So, I can say that folks will
look at the products if they are available.

Nice!

Since columnar ozone displays are not available to the Unidata
community in NOAAPORT, I am interested in making this product available
in our UNIWISC IDD datastream. Is it OK to access the EDWARD products
on an ongoing basis? If yes, I will create a stretch table using the
value mapping you include above (so BAR can correctly label the
displays).

OK, thanks. I went through the process of getting access to the SATEPS
ADDE servers quite some time ago. I am able to access the PLB/RSST here
at Unidata, and I should be able to access at the IDD injection machine at
SSEC, unidata2.ssec.wisc.edu.
>Thank you, Tom. I will await your response!
So, the issue boils down to whether or not you folks want/are willing
to restart the generation of the wildfire ABBA products. If you are
willing to do this, I will make sure that they are included in the
UNIWISC IDD datastream for the Unidata community.
By the way, the other products that would be MOST useful/interesting are
IR and WV composites over the North Pole (as a complement to the one
being created by the AMRC folks). I will be talking to Matthew L.
about this some more, but I figured that it couldn't hurt mentioning
it to you/Chris if they generated somewhere in CIMSS
Thanks for your help!
Cheers,
Tom
