I am much better now that the training workshops are over and my McIDAS distribution was finally released (this morning). A weekend of partying didn't hurt either ;-) >We "finally" got home, after a long trip. I hope that you enjoyed your visit to the US! >And, as you can see I'm here asking you about my Aladin GRIB files. Did >you manage to modify the source and open the files? Not yet, but I don't think that the job will be hard. I think that the McIDAS gribdec code (the same code that is in McIDAS-XCD) is not properly handling grids that are entirely east of 0 longitude and west of the dateline. If this really is the problem the fix should be simple. I will be looking into this probably tomorrow or Thursday. >My second question: NOAA email address you've told me about. Here is the contact infomation for someone in NOAA that will provide you with an application for access to realtime POES, GOES, and GMS (currently GOES-9) data from a McIDAS ADDE server at SATEPS. The information I am forwarding was given to me by a friend, fellow McIDAS user, and MUG (McIDAS User Group) meeting regular, Brian Hughes: From: "Brian Hughes" <address@hidden> To: Tom Yoksas <address@hidden> Date: Wed, 01 Jun 2005 17:07:43 GMT They will need to contact Richard Garey (address@hidden) to obtain an application. They would then fill out the application and return it to Richard to gain access. -Brian H. ~~~ Brian K.

All we had to do was "document" (list) that we have active collaborations with NOAA. As soon as we filled out a form and I listed several of our collaborations, we were provided with access to the servers for three IP addresses (they don't give carte blanche access). The other freely available data holding that you should be taking advangage of (if you are not already) is the ADDE MODIS server operated by NASA: ADDE dataset group name: NANUK ADDE server: nanuk.eosdis.nasa.gov >Thank you very much for your help, No worries. It was very nice to meet you and Alina. I am pretty sure that we will be able to grant you access to Unidata McIDAS by virtue of the educational component of your institute. >Oana Nicola >National Administration of Meteorology >Address: Sos.
