Hi Paul, I was corresponding with my colleague Sean Arms about this issue and he brought to my attention this link: https://github.com/Unidata/ldm-alchemy/pull/3 which concerns the "semi_minor_axis" netCDF attribute. This file may be fixable with a small amount of NCML, but, if possible, I would like to see it assist you further. Alternatively, you can give this NCML a shot: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <ncml:netcdf xmlns:ncml="http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/namespaces/netcdf/ncml-2.2" location="file: /home/mccronep/data/NOAAPORT/gre/sat/TIRU13_KNES_151745.sat.nc"> <attribute name="semi_minor_axis" orgName="semi_minor" /> <attribute name="semi_major_axis" orgName="semi_major" /> </ncml:netcdf> Load this file in the same manner as how you were trying to load that TIRU13_KNES_151745.sat.nc file into the IDV.
