[IDD #FBU-394735]: LDM Upstream Site Authorization Info Request

Hi Chad, 

Apologies for the delay in responding. I had a week off and the AMS 
conference...and we are shorthanded here.

The feed type for surface obs is DDS, if you want global surface obs then 
request:

IDS|DDPLUS

We do not transmit IFLOWS or DEOS. 

For a MADIS feed you will need to contact GSD (formerly FSL) to set up that 
feed..it is point to point originating from GSD, the point of contact at GSD is:

Patti Miller
address@hidden

or

Mike Barth 
address@hidden


If you can give me the machine name (and IP#) you are running your LDM on, 
I will place the "allow" on our machine:

idd.unidata.ucar.edu

..and you can begin ingesting data, and perhaps get a feel for what data lies 
in which feeds.
