HI Yi Chuan,
        The satellite ADDE server only stores these datasets for a very short 
term period of time.  As I know, there is no adde server available for the 
international 
user for archived dataset. But, you can download the area file from the NOAA 
Class Server (http://www.class.ncdc.noaa.gov/),  these area files doesn't have
calibration information associated with it, so you can only view the raw image 
in the IDV (without calibration unit).
