Hi Robert,

>I know Unidata installed a box at SSEC to serve up GVAR data via ADDE
>that is higher res/more frequent than is available in the IDD.

Yes.

>Is there also a box or dataset that is for general use for 6-hourly
>METEOSAT/GMS/INDOEX?

Not that we are in charge of or have administrative access to.

>many times.

The last time I looked, the Canadian server only had one image in its
dataset.  I have been meaning to setup an ADDE dataset on either
adde.ucar.edu or unidata2.ssec.wisc.edu that would host all Meteosat
channels for freely available times (0, 6, 12, 18Z).  I have also
wanted to backfill the dataset with half-hourly data after it becomes 3
days old.

So, do you think that NSBF would be willing to act as a server for the
data _if_ the administration of the ADDE server could be taken care of?

>Thanks,

Later...
