Current Capabilities

AWIPS II has the capability to display nearly the entire IDD/LDM datastream. It currently does not have a decoder to apply to the (National Profiler Network) NPN native netCDF data on the FSL2 feedtype. Given the NPN "budget" this may not be a big issue. Unidata is currently visualizing grids, satellite, radar, and text.

• GFS contours
  
• GFS filled
  
• NCP example (from migrated GEMPAK resource file)
  

  Satellite
