I was going to try that when I return from the Ice, wasn't sure it would work.
This brings up a good question in my mind: does GEMPAK support the Fixed Grid projection that is used for all products distributed in the GRB (GOES ReBroadcast)? If not, McIDAS can remap the images into projections supported by GEMPAK, but this would entail some loss of information. re:
What is AWS?
Amazon Web Services - Amazon's cloud. All GOES-16 data has been moved up to AWS since the satellite was turned on. If anyone is not on the ldm-users email list, please be aware that we are distributing ALL of the GOES-16 imagery and products we are receiving here in UCAR. The imagery and products are under the DIFAX feed type, but this will be renamed to SATELLITE in an upcoming LDM release (while keeping DIFAX as a secondary name, of course). A much bigger question for the community as a whole is if there is a desire for us (Unidata) to distribute GOES-16 imagery in a format that is readily usable by GEMPAK (e.g., AREA, NOT GINI!)? If the answer is yes, what sectors are of interest (NB: not all bands!!). We have been discussing using McIDAS to turn the NOAAPort-delivered SCMI netCDF4 images into McIDAS AREAs and providing them in a satellite image based feed type like UNIWISC, NIMAGE, or possibly SATELLITE. Cheers, Tom

Only McIDAS-X, McIDAS-V, IDV, and AWIPS2.It is something I will have to tackle here in a few weeks myself as we haven't moved to AWIPS2. I would assume that with GEMPAK not being developed anymore at NCEP (AFAIK) that it would be difficult for Unidata to tackle that likely big task, but maybe Michael can chime in on that.Regards, Robert Mullenax Please note new email address: robert.r.mullenax@xxxxxxxx Robert Mullenax Senior Principal Meteorologist, Orbital ATK/CSBF 1510 E.

I’m assuming I probably have to run it through (or perhaps create) some kind of decoder. Has anyone had success that might be able to provide a few pointers?Thanks! - Phil Birnie Ohio State University, Dept of Geography Volunteer _______________________________________________ NOTE: All exchanges posted to Unidata maintained email lists are recorded in the Unidata inquiry tracking system and made publicly available through the web.
