Hi Donna, re: > Is it OK for us to distribute the Level II data to a > for profit company? Do I need to get any special > permission to do so? There is now a PDF document linked prominently on the NOAA/NWS Radar Operations Center website: http://www.roc.noaa.gov/NWS_Level_2/ that presents the template MOA between the NOAA/NWS and toplevel NEXRAD Level II relay sites: http://www.roc.noaa.gov/NWS_Level_2/Level_II_Template_MOA.pdf Section III of this document, "III. PURPOSE", states: "Level II data will be released without any prohibition for its redistribution or use." The UPC intends to provide a link to the ROC website referenced above in our webpage on Level II data: http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/data/radar_data_2.html The link is _not_ there yet, however. Please read the entire NWS/NOAA template MOA carefully so that you fully understand all aspects it presents. NOTE: Please reference the NWS/NOAA document directly in any communications you might have regarding Level II data redistribution and use since it is the NWS' policy that is defined, not the UPC's/Unidata's (i.e., please do not attribute/represent any portion of what is written in the NWS/NOAA document to the UPC or the Unidata community). Thanks in advance! I hope that the NWS/NOAA template MOA is the sort of document you were looking for to clarify your questions regarding NEXRAD Level II Cheers, Tom **************************************************************************** Unidata User Support UCAR Unidata Program (303) 497-8642 P.O.
