John,

I believe that my comment at the time was that I would bet that SSEC was
interested in eventually having McIDAS support SeaWifs data.  I have not
heard anything from them on this yet, so it looks like it is still
in the future.

Hmm...  A page for McIDAS explorer seems like it must have come from some
group other than Unidata.  Where did you see this page?

Perhaps you should be talking directly to SSEC.  I suggest that you send
your inquiry to the MUG (McIDAS User's Group) Help Desk:
address@hidden.  They will be able to tell you if/when SeaWifs will
be supported and give you an idea of the licensing process for McIDAS
(Unidata would not be able to support you directly unless you are at
a university; SSEC supports McIDAS for government agencies, commercial
ventures, foreign governments, etc.).
