Hi Steve,These are the BUFR files that we get in real time here at TPC. Displaying them in NMAP is no problem, but I'd like the flexibility of plotting the data in gpmap. I can get the real time data to plot (QSCT or QSCT_HI) but I can't figure out how to point gpmap to the archived data rather than the real time datastream.

Michael, What format is your archived data in?The data in the NOAAPORT distribution is in BUFR, which can be plotted in gpmap using the QBUF identifier as shown at the bottom of:http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/gempak/examples/QuikSCAT/ the QSCT, QSCT_HI, AMBG1, AMBG2, AMBG3, AMBG4 types are used for the NESDIS format Quikscat files. This is not the same format as you would see on the JPL site though.

I copied the datatype.tbl file to my local directory and altered the path to the QuikSCAT data but I'm still not having any luck.Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks! Mike
