Do you plan to offer any IDV > training in the near future? > The following information is available about Unidata training: from http://my.unidata.ucar.edu/content/events/2003TrainingWorkshop/index.html 2003 Training Workshop for Unidata Software October 20th - November 8th We are currently in the planning stages of this year's workshop, but want to give some preliminary information to those of you who have been eager to make plans. This year we're going to try a fall workshop. The workshop will be held from roughly October 20th to November 8th in Boulder, Colorado at UCAR's new Center Green campus. We will refine those dates a little closer to meeting time. There will be sessions on GEMPAK, McIDAS, and LDM with brief highlights of Unidata's new Integrated Data Viewer (IDV). There is no cost to attend the workshop and guests will be responsible for their own travel. Because we have limited space in our training center, we give priority to educational institutions. The IDV includes a very complete User's Guide built in, with a short tutorial. We believe that an IDV user dedicating the same time to using the IDV as would be devoted to a training workshop should be able to become proficient in use of the IDV. There is little special knowledge needed to install or run the IDV; most of the learning concerns use of the user interface and features available. We are interested in building the IDV into a good system for satellite data, especially with features needed by the Unidata community, and would be glad to hear your results using the IDV. The IDV home page is http://my.unidata.ucar.edu/content/software/IDV/index.html which includes links to pages about downloading, running, and using the IDV.
