> Thank you, Michael. Can you please tell me how that is accomplished, or if > you know of any providers? > Unfortunately I can't give specific help on who to talk to about this. The whole NOAAport feed (which we distribute across the IDD) is available to anyone installing a satellite dish and NOAAport ingest software. You could also arrange access through a university in our IDD network (feeding directly from them rather than from UCAR), but that arrangement would be between your company and the university without any involvement by UCAR, other than having the university uphold their redistribution restriction for lightning data. Again, I can't say who you should contact for this, but hopefully this gives you an idea. -Michael Ticket Details =================== Ticket ID: JZE-105128 Department: Support AWIPS Priority: Normal Status: Open =================== NOTE: All email exchanges with Unidata User Support are recorded in the Unidata inquiry tracking system and then made publicly available through the web.
