The University of Miami is pleased to sponsor and host a Unidata Regional Workshop on Friday and Saturday, April 18-19, 2014. Unidata Program Center staff will provide introductory and advanced training in the use of Unidata's Integrated Data Viewer (IDV), Repository for Archiving, Managing and Accessing Diverse Data (RAMADDA), and other Unidata data and tools.
Unidata's IDV will be featured in a number of events at this year's annual American Meteorological Society meeting in Atlanta, Georgia. Read the full article for details.
Unidata is hosting a Short Course on Integrating WRF and Other Model Output with Remote and In-situ Observational Datasets using Unidata's Integrated Data Viewer (IDV) on 2nd February 2014, preceding the 94th AMS Annual Meeting in Atlanta, Georgia. Preliminary programs, registration, hotel, and general information are posted on the AMS Annual Meeting Web site. To register for the Short Course from the meeting site, select Registration from the site menu, then Online Registration. You'll have to log in to register for the course, so have your AMS login information handy.

Three new IDV tutorials created by Dr. Brian Mapes of the University of Miami's Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Sciences (RSMAS) are available on Unidata's YouTube channel. The new tutorials introduce the Mapes IDV Collection, which is a curated compilation of IDV bundles and "templates" delivered in the form of an IDV plugin. Dr. Mapes is building the Collection to bring together and provide easy access to some interesting datasets and displays that he uses in his own research and teaching.
We encourage those interested in learning more about the IDV to watch and send comments and feedback to the Unidata IDV development team or to Dr. Mapes. We are open to suggestions for future screencast topics, and encourage you to send in topic requests.
Millersville University is pleased to sponsor and host a Unidata Regional Workshop on October 21-22, 2013. The purpose of this workshop is to provide introductory and advanced training in the use of Unidata's Integrated Data Viewer (IDV). The workshop will also include a presentation and hands-on session showcasing the GEOScience Probe of Discovery (GEOPOD), a National Science Foundation funded project that leverages Unidata's IDV to create an interactive 3-D learning environment where students can navigate a virtual probe through real geophysical data and actuate devices to explore and discover the atmosphere
As of June 3, 2013, THREDDS Data Server (TDS) version 4.2 will no longer be in use on Unidata's servers. This is important because many of the variable names in all GRIB files have been changed in TDS 4.3. This affects almost all the model data served at Unidata.
As previously described in this post, the Unidata Program Center's THREDDS Data Server (TDS) using the domain name "motherlode.ucar.edu" will be upgraded to use TDS version 4.3 at this time. Since late March, a TDS version 4.3 server using the domain name "thredds.ucar.edu" has been in operation. The domain name "motherlode.ucar.edu" will not work for TDS access after August 1, 2013. (Other motherlode access methods will continue to work as they currently do.)
Following suggestions from our Users and steering committees, Unidata has begun creating short video tutorials designed to introduce viewers to different aspects of our software. Our plan is to create new videos (and update existing videos) as time and resources allow.
