Hi Gary, re: > I have to write a decoder for MTSAT data in HRIT format. What exactly do you mean by "decoder"? re: > This is for > a project in Taiwan called AOAWS. Currently we are getting MTSAT in > another format or a legacy version of HRIT, but now we have to work with > this "new" HRIT format. I have found some documentation for the format > (JMA HRIT Mission Specific Implementation, Issue 1.2, 1/1/2003) that > appears to match the example files I have. I have searched the web for > information, too. From what I read on Wisconsin's SSEC MCIDAS web page, > MCIDAS ingests this format. Is this true? I believe that the SSEC page(s) you are referring to are referring to their SDI package (Satellite Data Ingestor). This system is equivalent to a TeraScan system both in capabilities and price (I think that the new SDI boxes are around $20K). The good news is that those boxes make the data available via ADDE to remote access processes from packages like McIDAS-X, IDV and McIDAS-V. re: > If you have any information or insight that would speed up the > development, I would appreciate hearing from you. I am not sure what your development objectives are, so it is hard for me to come up with any recommendations. Questions: - what is your source of HRIT data? - is the objective to simply be able to process HRIT data from disk files, or are you looking for a realtime ingest system?
