Hi Jeff, It would be great if you initiated the contact! Yes, "gusher.atmos.albany.edu" is our LDM server. Not sure exactly when we'd start using the data, but it would be nice to have the access in anticipation of future needs. Cheers, Kevin Jeff Weber wrote: Hi Kevin, The feed is "point to point", meaning all feeds originate from CMC/EC. We facilitate the contact. For LDM config, the CMC has published this document: <snip> Dear users of CMC GEM model data, *Content changes The main change in contents consists in the addition of several new vertical levels for the basic meteorological fields of geopotential height, moisture, temperature, and wind. These will be augmented to 28 pressure levels. Detailed information on available fields is available at the following URL : http://weatheroffice.ec.gc.ca/grib/Low-resolution_grib_e.html The grid resolution and coverage are almost identical to our current LDM grid ; the only difference is one additional row of grid points along the northern edge of the grid. The grid dimensions will then be 135x95 instead of 135x94. New grid specifications can be found at http://weatheroffice.ec.gc.ca/grib/CMC_GRIB_Technical_Grid_Specifications_e.html#low_res_reg *New naming convention In order to accomodate the changes in contents, we need to modify the file naming convention for the LDM GRIB files. Details of the new file-naming convention can be found at : http://weatheroffice.ec.gc.ca/grib/Low-resolution_grib_e.html#convention The dataset will be made identical with the GRIB dataset available via http at : http://dd.weatheroffice.ec.gc.ca/public/grib/lores/CMC_reg_00 and http://dd.weatheroffice.ec.gc.ca/public/grib/lores/CMC_reg_12 .
