Here's the link. I think you can >only access from GOV domain. > >http://has.ncdc.noaa.gov/plclimprod/plsql/HAS.FileAppSelect?datasetname=7000 What is really interesting about this is we just got a request from NCDC to access _our_ NEXRAD Level III through ADDE (we have two weeks available online). Go figure. >BTW, at the MUG meeting you mentioned that you kinda have a version of >mcidas to compile under MAX OS-X. Mind if we get a copy of it. We're >anxious to run it on the MAC. Hopefully, MUG will support MAC OS-X >soon. More specifically, I said that I was _close_ to getting this to work. I havn't had time to work on this since the MUG meeting (man, have I been busy), so I have nothing new that I could give you. I promise, however, to let you know as soon as I have something that works. Tom >From address@hidden Thu Nov 21 11:45:32 2002 Louis, re: NCDC wants access to our online Level III data >It just tells you that you have a good product and system in place and >easy to use. Having the data is one thing, but visualization is >another thing. Anyways, I think the raw archive goes back to 1995 or >1996. I went to the web site you gave us, and was successful in downloading all Level III data for a station for a day (all that I tried). I got email notification of the FTP/web availability of the data file they created within something like 10 minutes; downloaded the file; unpacked it into a directory; setup an ADDE dataset for the N0R and NCR products; and was looking at them minutes later. This was _so_ simple! Very cool! Thanks for passing along the URL!! Tom
