Hi Neil:

USGODAE provided the NOGAPS to the IDD.  Hopefully today the NAVGEM will also 
be flowing through the IDD.

Here is the flier I sent out regarding the NOGAPS to NAVGEM transition to the 
USGODAE users.


==

Hello:



FNMOC is in the process of transitioning from the NOGAPS model over to NAVGEM.  
You can see details at http://usgodae.org/navgem.html.



This email is intended for any of the NOGAPS users out there.  Hopefully, it 
will soften the blow.

New Directory location:

-  The folder where the NAVGEM data will be located is 
/pub/outgoing/fnmoc/models/navgem_0.5



Different filenames:

-  FNMOC includes the WMO GRIB processing ID and WMO GRIB grid ID in their 
filenames.  This will cause the new files to be named slightly differently.  
It's a simple and straight forward change, but a change none the less.

                                                             XXXX XXXX

FROM:  
US058GCOM-GR1mdl.0058_0240_05400F0RL2013020700_0001_000000-000000grnd_sea_temp

TO:         
US058GCOM-GR1mdl.0018_0056_05400F0RL2013020700_0001_000000-000000grnd_sea_temp



In the above, the 0058_0240 which represented the one degree NOGAPS will change 
to 0018_0056 to represent the 1/2 degree NAVGEM



Higher resolution:

-  We are switching from 1 degree to 1/2 degree



Important dates:

2/13/2013:  NAVGEM data to be made available on USGODAE

3/13/2013:  NOGAPS will no longer be available.  It is being turned off at FNMOC

---  From 2/13/2013 to 3/13/2013 both NOGAPS and NAVGEM will be available

Is the upcoming NAVGEM replacement for NOGAPS scheduled to be distributed on 
the IDD?
