20041109: IDD Connection Request



Rob,

There are several model grids that cover alaska in the data stream,

In the HRS:
The GFS thinned global, the northern hemispshere #201, Alaska #203 
The ETA Alaska Grid #242, #217, and #207
The NGM Alaska grid #207
The UKMET thined global

In the CONDUIT data stream:
GFS global #003 1x1 degree (#002 2.5x2.5 degree)
ETA Alaska #216

Other options also include the NOGAPS global model and depending
on the area, the CMC/GEM model both point/point feeds from
FNMOC and CMC respectively.

Whe then DVBS feed becomes operational, ETA and DGEX on NGRID
grid #242 will be available with more parameters/levels than currently
exist in HDS.

The old tried and true DDPLUS|IDS is still the source for metar, buoy and ship
reports.
