Subject: NEXRAD feed question
Organization: UCAR/Unidata
Patrick,
Splitting the feed is AOK by us...
Maybe requesting half the regions from one and half from the other..
http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/packages/ldm/feedtypes/howto-nnexrad.html
and
http://205.156.54.206/cgi-bin/chg_show.pl?fn=XR-06ii-state.txt
You are correct in that this will ease the load on both the upstream
sites, but do not ~expect better performance on your end..bandwidth will
still be the limiting factor.
You may also want to sub-set the products...You mentioned that you were
doing a precip study, so maybe you do not need the vel products or maybe
you just want the precip prods, that you will need to evaluate and answer,
but could increase performance if you could determine if prods were wanted
or not..just a suggestion.
Sounds like an interesting project..real science, I wish you success.
Again, let us know if we can help further,
-Jeff
