Subject: Q: CODIAC Dataset download Organization: University of Georgia Hi Tom, You should also get a second e-mail when the dataset is ready to be picked up. The time can vary from 1-5 minutes to up to an hour depending on the amount of data requested and if any format conversions were requested. I see you ordered the GOES_IR data, so no conversion..it should be in yor mailbox soon. Please let me know if you do not get the second e-mail and I will resolve the problem. Thank you for visiting the COMET Case Study Library, -Jeff ____________________________ _____________________ Jeff Weber address@hidden Unidata Support PH:303-497-8676 NWS-COMET Case Study Library FX:303-497-8690 University Corp for Atmospheric Research 3300 Mitchell Ln http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/staff/jweber Boulder,Co 80307-3000 ________________________________________ ______________________ On Wed, 1 May 2002, Unidata Support wrote: > > ------- Forwarded Message > > >To: address@hidden > >From: Thomas Mote <address@hidden> > >Subject: Q: CODIAC Dataset download > >Organization: University of Georgia > >Keywords: 200205012034.g41KYJa06025 COMET CaseStudies > > > I ordered a CODIAC dataset, asking for access via anonymous ftp this > afternoon.
