[IDV #WHM-665465]: Can not select some DFFD datasets
- Subject: [IDV #WHM-665465]: Can not select some DFFD datasets
- Date: Sat, 21 Jul 2012 10:51:33 -0600
Greetings Albert,
There is a catalog, but unfortunately there is a bug such that not all
of the datasets get listed for the NDFD (not sure about the others
yet). You can browse through the dev server by visiting:
http://motherlode.ucar.edu:9080/thredds/catalog.html
Note that even though some of the datasets aren't listed, you can
still access them by editing the url to point to the missing data.
Also note that because this is a dev server, things such as catalog
layout are subject to change.
Cheers!
Sean
