Hi Jeff: I am working on the GODAE project out at NRL. Would you have time
to work together with me so that we can provide the NOGAPS / COAMPS data
from our LDM to yours. There is also some WW3 data in there.
Our LDM is at: usgodae.org
Please send me your vitals..
Also, I will need to coordinate with DREN to make sure that they open this
up for us.
Thanks,
Mike

Jeff:
Thanks for contacting me to follow up on the conversation that Linda and I
had at the AMS Annual Meeting. We definitely want to restore the LDM feed
of NOGAPS and COAMPS to the Unidata Community.
Effective last month, the Naval Research Lab (NRL) Marine Meteorology
Division, collocated with us here in Monterey, took over the responsibility
for hosting and maintaining the GODAE Server. This effort falls under the
direction of Mr. John Cook of NRL, who I have copied on this e-mail.
The LDM data feed of NOGAPS and COAMPS died last year with the failure of
some legacy Sun hardware as we were in the process of re-hosting the GODAE
Server software to IBM hardware and, ultimately, transitioning the Server to
NRL ownership. As I understand it, the LDM software is currently working on
the Server and capable of transmitting NOGAPS and COAMPS fields to the
Unidata Community. However, NRL does not yet have Information Assurance
(IA) approval from its Headquarters to activate the LDM feed to the public.
John:
Please comment further and provide the outlook for restoring the LDM feed of
NOGAPS and COAMPS to Unidata users. Thanks.
Mike

Hi Mike,
I work with Linda Miller at Unidata/UCAR and I am writing you in hopes of
helping you get the NOGAPS/COAMPS model output flowing again to our
community via the LDM/IDD.
In the early days of this project, we worked with LCDR David Dimitriou, but
more recently our contact had been Phil Sharfstein, it seems as if Phil has
moved on as well.
Also we are aware that there are concerns re hardware and human resources so
we again offer to help in any way possible. We can help install and
configure the LDM, provide guidance on appropriate hardware, etc.
We could also offer up being a distribution node for NOGAPS..i.e. You could
feed Unidata, and we would then "fan it out" to our community via our
topologies saving you bandwidth and configuration headaches. We could
provide you with a list of subscribers to the data feed so you could use
that in any evaluation process to see who is getting the NOGAPS data.
The Unidata community values the NOGAPS/COAMPS model output and would like
to ingest it with the other feeds via the LDM/IDD.
I look forward to your response and hopefully we can get the data flowing
again.
Cheers,
Jeff
