Ken, The Unidata/Wisconsin IDD data stream carries the GOES Water Vapor imagery at 8km resolution, which is the full resolution of that instrument. Water vapor imagery is the 6.7 micron channel. All of the Unidata/Wisconsin IDD data is archived at Wisconsin, and can be retrieved via ftp. Information on requesting data from this archive can be found at: http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/data/unirec.html Once the operator at SSEC posts the data for the time period you request, you can login and retrieve the data with: login: XXXXXX password: XXXXXX Note that this site also provides access to a nearterm recovery for current data as well- up to the past 30 days.
