Subject: RE: RSAS model outputs
Date: Thu, 27 Jan 2005 10:51:54 -0700 (MST)
Hi Donna,

Apologies..I was out of the office the last two days.

Perhaps there is some confusion here:

In your ldmd.conf file I see:

# RUC model
request HDS "^[YZ].Q.*/mRUC" papagayo.unl.edu


So it would appear as if you are already requesting the RUC data.

RSAS and RUC are virtually synonymous, RSAS has a 0Z hour "analysis"
whereas the RUC has the 0Z hour "forecast"..

Please see:

http://www.nco.ncep.noaa.gov/pmb/products/rsas/

The RSAS analysis is available via FTP from the above URL, and is not part
of the Unidata LDM/IDD feed. The RUC forecasts are in the IDD feed.

From your ldmd.conf file I see requests for:

#avn model
request HDS "^Y.[AQ]... KWBC.*(/mAVN|/mSSIAVN)" papagayo.unl.edu
# eta 40 km model
request HDS "^[YZ].[RQU].*/mETA" papagayo.unl.edu
# MRF NH  model
request HDS "^Y.[AI]... KWBH" papagayo.unl.edu
# RUC model
request HDS "^[YZ].Q.*/mRUC" papagayo.unl.edu
# satellite data


so about the only one i see missing is the NGM.

You may want to change your ldmd.conf file to:

request HDS ".*" papagayo.unl.edu

which will bring in all the model output available and simplify your
regular expresions :)  ...just a thought.


Now pqact.conf:

HDS     /mRUC
        PIPE    decoders/dcgrib2 -d data/gempak/logs/dcgrib2_RUC.log
                -e GEMTBL=/home/gempak/NAWIPS/gempak/tables



HDS     ^[YZ].[QNIH].*/mNGM

I am not sure what models you want to decode and file, etc..so I have
picked the ones that I see you have requested already...these are
"snippets" from pqact.conf..so a simple cut and paste would probably not
work as there are blank lines, etc...keep in mind thaty pqact.conf can
only have tabs and not spaces.


I hope this helps and it is not to late for usefuleness.

I am in the office all day today and tomorrow so please feel free to send
any questions my way.


Cheers,




Jeff
