The UNIWISC GVAR products are still not fully supported.  Right now all
non-GVAR UNIWISC products decode and display, but the GVAR products return
a persistence error if more than a single product is ingested (EDEX thinks
that the product already exists if a previous scan was ingested that day,
even though the timestamp is obviously different, so basically ingest works
for one image per day per product).  I think it may be an issue with the
geospatial records in postgres.  This make me wonder if the same problem
occurs with the Himawari images.

Justin, I have the area files that you supplied and will take a look.  It
may be as simple as table entries for when the metadata tables are
initialized.
