Due to the current gap in continued funding from the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF), the NSF Unidata Program Center has temporarily paused most operations. See NSF Unidata Pause in Most Operations for details.
Thanks Steve and all,One other question...I recently downloaded Nexrad Level II radar data for a Dec 2000 case from the NCDC HADS website:
http://hurricane.ncdc.noaa.gov/pls/plhas/has.dsselectThe data in 2000 is apparently in a different format than more recent data, since a more on the data files shows different text at the top. Consequently, I get the following error upon trying to plot using gpnexr2:
Enter <cr> to accept parameters or type EXIT: : No such file or directory wsr88d_to_radar: No valid site ID info found. [IM -3] Image file /usr1/data/dnovak/radar/001230/OKX/KOKX_20001230_0959 not a supported format [IM -8] Could not open LUT file ... [GEMPLT -15] NIPROJ - Invalid projection specified. [GG -7] No map drawn. [GEMPLT -15] NIPROJ - Invalid projection specified. [GG -13] Error drawing lat/lon grid. Has anyone else noticed this? Is there a workaround? Thanks, Dave P.S. The data file was too large to post... Steve Chiswell wrote:
David, We decode the NLDN data from binary files into GEMPAK surface files and use SFMAP to plot the data, points, etc. Since your data is not of the same format as our IDD feed to use our dcnldn decoder, you can put your data into the ascii format used by SFLIST for importing into a GEMPAK surface file using SFEDIT as shown here: http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/cgi-bin/getfile?file=/content/support/help/MailArchives/gempak/msg04454.html Steve Chiswell Unidata User Support On Wed, 2006-03-22 at 13:58, David Novak wrote:All - Is there a GEMPAK program to plot lightning data? It's not obvious to me. I have text files with that contain (1) date, (2) time, (3) latitude, (4) longitude, (5) peak current and polarity, (6) chi square value Thanks! Dave
