Hi Mike, re: ETA for Unidata McIDAS-X/-XCD v2017 release - by December 1 for sure > Wonderful news! I keep getting yanked off to tend to other things. Oh well! re: no change in work flow > Also great to hear. I largely wanted to make sure I could continue > moving forward without having to back-track later, sounds like that's > the case. Hmm... I guess I shouldn't have been so glib. Here are the things that are definitely changing: - change in the base name for the ADDE servers for NOAAPort ABI imagery Since it is almost 100% sure that the Weather Service is going to stick with converting to SCMI format for NOAAPort distribution, I decided to rename my servers to reflect the type: abiwadir.cp -> scmiadir.cp abiwaget.cp -> scmiaget.cp abiwutil.h -> scmiutil.h abiwutil.c -> scmiutil.c This change will necessitate changing the ADDE dataset definitions that are codified in $MCDATA/RESOLV.SRV: ABIW -> SCMI - I changed the names of both the NOAAPort and GRB delivered ABI images to better match what SSEC is using for GRB images To see the reworked names, do the following from a McIDAS-X session: DATALOC ADD RTGOESR lead.unidata.ucar.edu DATALOC ADD NPGOESR lead.unidata.ucar.edu DSINFO IMAGE RTGOESR DSINFO IMAGE NPGOESR You will see in the listing for the NPGOESR datasets that the L2 products also have definitions. I decided to include the L2 products in the NPGOESR group even though they are of type ABIN since they are delivered in NOAAPort (NoaaPort -> NP; Real Time -> RT). These changes will require you do some tweaking, but the changes should be quick and easy to make. re: SSEC's Python support in XRD is 2 not 3 > That's a shame, but it makes me glad I asked. I'll be sure to plan > accordingly. Yea, I was a bit disappointed as well.
