[IDD #QBK-381226]: access to NEXRAD/Level II radar data (LDM)

> Hello,

Hi Karen, 

> 
> The ATEC group in RAL supports a number of weather-related US Dept of
> Defense projects.  Several of these projects/sites would like to get
> access to NEXRAD Level II radar data via the LDM.  These sites, which
> are all .mil, are currently receiving the data from RAL's LDM server;
> we would like to move them off of the internal RAL server.  Looking at

Yes, sometimes firewall restrictions do come into play...so a .mil to a .mil 
may make things easier.

Caveat! As you know, the LDM/IDD data feed is NOT operational and outages can 
occur.

We are exploring the options, more soon.
> Per the above referenced list, the .mil sites are:
> anvil.nrlmry.navy.mil
> kinison.navo.hpc.mil
> bodie.met.nps.navy.mil
> metoc.nmm.nrlmry.navy.mil

> Thank you!
