Hi all,



Has anyone started ingesting the new SSEC Global IR composite imagery (new
Apr 2014)?

Global Rectilinear Thermal Infrared composite  20 km  PNGA   ★ new product

Details of updated / new files:

I added the example pqact entry:

http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/data/rtimages_pqact.html#GLOBAL-IR



The resulting files (sample attached - apologies for the file size) are
coming up garbled when loaded into the IDV / GEMPAK.  Has anyone had success
ingesting the data?  I wasn’t sure whether this was an issue with the
incoming data, the pqact entry, perhaps the pnga2area decoder, or just user
error.



Thanks,

Evan Lowery
