Thank you for your concern. We can update the website to be more clear. Our main user base we are funded to support is the University community which do have access to our LDM/IDD feeds with a .edu address. Would you like to elaborate what extra steps you had to take to get LDM installed? LDM should be installed with the base EDEX installation to the /awips2/ldm directory without any additional steps. > Understood, in which case I would hope that someone could update this site: > https://unidata.github.io/awips2/ > > It is extremely misleading. If the EDEX instructions persist, I'd also > recommend revisiting them. I had to go through a few extra steps to get LDM > installed. > Thanks, Tiffany Meyer AWIPS Lead Software Engineer NSF Unidata If you're interested, please feel free to fill out a survey about the support you receive: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeDIkdk8qUMgq8ZdM4jhP-ubJPUOr-mJMQgxInwoAWoV5QcOw/viewform Ticket Details =================== Ticket ID: VSH-249939 Department: Support AWIPS Priority: Normal Status: Open =================== NOTE: All email exchanges with NSF Unidata User Support are recorded in the Unidata inquiry tracking system and then made publicly available through the web.
