Hi Mike,
I do not know which endian form the NEXRAD data is in. I can say,
however, that endian form has not been an issue on any of our supported
platforms, including Linux.
Yes, the NEXRAD level III data is in NIDS format. Additionally, the
NEXRAD data that you are getting via the IDD is also compressed.
