Hi Will,
Yes, you will see non .edu sites participating in the LDM/IDD. We, the Unidata
Program Center, do NOT feed data to anyone outside the research or education
domains. Universities are allowed to pass on any non-proprietary data
(lightning, ACARS, and others are restricted from any redistribution) to anyone
they wish to work with. There are some sites that are willing to pass on data
to non research and education sites, some desire a quid pro quo depending upon
the volume and nature of the data request. We, the Unidata Program Center, can
help guide you to sites that ~may be willing to do so, and it would help us
help you if we knew where you were located and what possible datasets you
desire..is it solely NCEP model output, and are there particular models,
domains, and resolutions you desire?
Cheers,
Jeff Weber
