RE: 20040325:LEAD testbed data (fwd)

Hi Tom,
Regarding decoding formats, I suggest you find someone in the ADAS tech staff at OU and find out what form they assume the datasets will be in for use in their data assimilation package. That's one that we eventually want to interface with so it would be good to know what assumptions they make about the input data. 

Unfortunately I don't know if we ever got an official contact person there.

Hi Marcus,

FYI, you and I are on parallel paths in that I'm trying to get all these
elements up and running on the Unidata LEAD test bed as well as work on
documentation and other elements to assist other LEAD testbeds in getting
this stuff up and going.   It sounds like you're ahead of me, (not
surprising as I'm the new guy who has yet to figure much out!) but I
intend to catch up and collaborate with you on this effort.

Regarding the decoding of the data feeds, are you aware of any indicators
as to what form LEAD would like the various feeds?  I've been looking to
folks around here to see what they generally do with each of the seven
feeds and working towards setting up decoding in that fashion.

I'm also interested in hearing about any "gotchas" you encountered in
installing the pieces you have in place so far.

Thanks,
Tom.

Marcus,

The cookbook has much of the info you need, it's at:
http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/projects/THREDDS/tech/configurations/cookboo
k. html

But... It's not complete in all the configurations and the thredds.war
file is not in place yet. It will be there soon.  If you have package
questions send those to support, they will be forwarded onto the correct
people.  Other questions should go to me so I can improve the cookbook
documentation and forward those onto the LEAD folks here.

Thanks,
Robb....

Jeff,

Have you talked to Robb about this?  I thought he was working on an end
to end cookbook for these pieces.  He's especially aware of how the
decoders fit in.
