[IDV #QHO-316918]: IDV CAPPI Changes in Version 2.3



Hi Josh-

> I generated CAPPI plots of level II NEXRAD data a couple weeks ago using IDV
> version 2.2.  Today I reran the same data with the same CAPPI altitudes
> using version 2.3 and got unexpected results.  In some cases the plots were
> very similar (2.2 vs. 2.3) with only minor differences noted in intensity
> and position of weather.  In other cases there were extremely different
> plots between versions 2.2 and 2.3.  I was interested in knowing what was
> changed in the CAPPI program for version 2.3, and if there are any issues
> currently being worked for the CAPPI display.

We found a bug in the rendering of the Level II data which was fixed
in version 2.3 and probably explains the differences you are seeing.
The 2.3 plots should be more accurate.

> Thank you for your assistance,

Don Murray
