I don't think so, I believe that is to view the data using their specific 
software.

The way AWIPS is designed, specifically with EDEX, is to have an LDM server 
running that is receiving a realtime feed of data and notifying EDEX to process 
the data. Currently Unidata has a big LDM system that we are receiving data 
from many entities and redistributing that to our local EDEX (that is public) 
and to Universities. However, just because you are receiving data doesn't mean 
AWIPS will know what to do with the data. There are plugins specifically 
written to ingest data and display it correctly. Himawari data is configured to 
work in AWIPS, however we currently don't have access to an LDM realtime feed 
of this data. Meteostat most likely won't ingest in AWIPS since there are 
current no plugins for that dataset.
