>I have a question for you. We have archived surface observations for a >year or so. With a little script, we can use garp to view the archived >images. However, garp is hard to handle so many images popping up at once. Do >you have a mechanism for garp itself to pick up images. For example, we can >archive the data monthly, then garp will have a choice to enter a certain >month to view images. It would be very helpful if something for this are >existing. Otherwise, we will find a way to do that. Wen, If you had monthly archives, then a simple script which asks the user for the desired month, and then set the environmental variable $SAT for the desired image subtree prior to launching NTL would be all that you need. Launching Garp or NMAP2 from the NTL would inherit the environmental variable of $SAT. For example, if you had a directory archived_images/yyyymm/sat..... Then your $SAT could be set to the desired archived_images/yyyymm/sat/ tree. This same approach is useful when using COMET case studies in GEMPAK.
