Are you using thredds.ucar.edu to access GOES East / West (16/17) data and products? If so, this message is for you! Are you using thredds-test.unidata.ucar.edu to access those data and/or products? Switch to thredds.ucar.edu and see below! As you may have heard or read, changes to the IDD NIMAGE Datastream were made that have an impact on how GOES 16/17 datasets are disseminated. Information specific to those change are outlined on our blog [1], and were posted to several of our email lists. As a result, users of thredds.ucar.edu who access GOES East/West data will notice a few changes, specifically a restructuring of the satellite catalog [2], and a change to data access URLs. Data Access URL Changes The following describe the data access URL changes. The examples are for GOES 16, and can be applied to GOES 17 by replacing 16 with 17 in the "previous" urls, and east with west in the "current" urls. A list of possible values for <SERVICE>, <SENSOR>, <PRODUCT_NAME>, <DOMAIN>, and <CHANNEL> can be found at the end of this message. 1. Level 2 Products. Previous: /thredds/<SERVICE>/satellite/goes16/GOES16/Products/<PRODUCT_NAME>/… Current: /thredds/<SERVICE>/satellite/goes/east/products/<PRODUCT_NAME>/… 2. GOES Rebroadcast Datasets Previous: /thredds/<SERVICE>/satellite/goes16/GRB16/<SENSOR>/ Current: /thredds/<SERVICE>/satellite/goes/east/grb/<SENSOR> *** Special note: If you were accessing ABI data (Sectorized_CMI) from NOAAPORT, i.e.: /thredds/<SERVICE>/satellite/goes16/GOES16/<DOMAIN>/<CHANNEL>/ these are now available at /thredds/<SERVICE>/satellite/goes/east/grb/ABI/<DOMAIN>/<CHANNEL>/ In this case, the file names you used to see will change. Previously, they looked like: GOES16_Mesoscale-2_20190619_181031_13.30_2km_36.8N_86.1W.nc4 Now, for consistency with other GOES data and products, these will use mission standard file names, such as: M6C01_G16_s20191580001446_e20191580004219_c20191580004267.nc Please see the blog post [1] for further details.
