[LDM #ZOX-982706]: CMAN observations not in database

Hi Walt,
I moved your inquiry to a different department in our inquiry tracking
system since your question is not about the LDM per se...
re:

Don Murray first alerted me to your original inquiry regarding Alaskan
CMAN station decoding in McIDAS (the IDV is accessing the CMAN data
through the McIDAS ADDE server on adde.ucar.edu among others). We
found that the Alaskan CMAN stations were not included in the McIDAS
station database, and the WMO headers that the ship/buoy decoder
was configured to process did not include the one in which Alaskan
CMANs are reported (SXUS). It is likely that the CMANs you are asking
about in this inquiry fit into the same scenario as the Alaskan ones
that are now being processed: either the McIDAS station database does
not have their locations and/or the WMO bulletin in which they are
contained is not being processed by the decoder.
Questions:
- I am guessing that you are trying to access the CMANs through
the IDV and it is making its request from adde.ucar.edu.
Can you verify this?
We run a couple of different servers on motherlode.ucar.edu
(aka adde.ucar.edu), and the packages behind the scenes (McIDAS
for ADDE and THREDDS for other access) likely have different
sets of decoded data.
- specifically which CMANs are you reporting on now?
- do you now which WMO bulletins they are being sent under in
NOAAport?
We realize that you may well know know the answer to the second
question, but it would speed up our investigation if you did.
Cheers,
Tom
