Hi Victor, GEMPAK and more specifically the (20-year old) N-AWIPS package (which includes GEMPAK, NMAP2, NWX ...) only reads GEMPAK-formatted data files (surface and RAOB, and gridded model output files) as well as satellite data in McIDAS AREA or Noaaport GINI formats, and NEXRAD level 3 and 2. NMAP2 cannot read in data from an EDEX server. You'd have to set up LDM to download the data files you want, and also have LDM run GEMPAK decoders so NMAP2 and the various GEMPAK programs (e.g. gdplot2, sfmap, snprof) can read the GEMPAK-decoded data files. It's all a bit "old-school" but it still works ... :D AWIPS2, which has a lot of the GEMPAK functionality inside of it, can/must read from data served via EDEX. Hope this helps ... --Kevin _____________________________________________ Kevin Tyle, Manager of Departmental Computing Dept. of Atmospheric & Environmental Sciences University at Albany Earth Science 235, 1400 Washington Avenue Albany, NY 12222 Email: ktyle@xxxxxxxxxx Phone: 518-442-4578 _____________________________________________ ________________________________ From: gembud-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx <gembud-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> on behalf of Victor Alvarez <vic_alvarez05@xxxxxxxxx> Sent: Saturday, February 11, 2017 10:52:13 PM To: gembud@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [gembud] GEMPAK Data Access Help [Inline image] Hello, I appear to have hit a brick wall when it comes to accessing data on GEMPAK. I've got GEMPAK installed with all the packages, sourced the variables, and everything opens but no data is coming in through the EDEX server. Screenshot below shows the issue. Is the EDEX server is where data comes through or do I need to setup an LDM ingest server or anything similar. I've looked in multiple places for help but hear alot of custom scripts, LDM server, etc... I am very new to GEMPAK but would love to learn about it & use it but it appears beginners guides are seldom seen. Any help would be greatly appreciated! :)
