20050711:IDD Model Feeds via Unidata

Hello Shuyi,

Yes, we can help you ingest either or all of these models other than the
GFDL.

Keep in mind that the output from the CMC (that we distribute) is a
regional version of the GEM output with an emphasis on the northern
portion of the hemisphere, also the grids from FNMOC (NOGAPS model) is
also a deprecated output with some fields missing in some time frames.

I suspect you will wish to bring in the hi-res CONDUIT feed of the GFS.

Please see:

http://my.unidata.ucar.edu/content/data/conduit/ldm_idd/index.html

This is the preferred choice for model initialization, as it has higher
resolution and fairly complete grids :)

Please let me know if you would still like to "experiment" with the FNMOC
and CMC feeds and I will initiate the contact between you and the
modeling centers.


I see that:

                           dusky.rsmas.miami.edu [6.0.14]
                           sapodilla.rsmas.miami.edu [6.0.14]

are currently running the LDM..is one of these yours?

How do you want to process the data...?

Simply file for use in native format, or decode to another format for use?

Let us know specifically what your desires are and we will walk you
through it..:)


Cheers,

ps: I will be on vacation soon, so it is best to direct all questions to:

address@hidden

as they will get answered even in my absence.

Jeff
