Right. Your previous note to the effect that the AWC had a GOES ingestor
indicated that this was probably the case.
So, the question now is what can we do to help you?

Attached is the images for Ch1, ch2, ch4, ch5 at time 20:15UTC 10/26/00.
All of image are truncated in the RUC2 region only.
I didn't plot the RUC2 grids yet. maybe tomorrow.
I don't know how many grid-lines should be put on each x and y =
direction.
Jerry

Tom:
I have some more information about the satellite data distribution at
the AWC. The satellite data doesn't come from the NOAAPORT; they have a
"satellite receiver" on the roof of the building. The data from the
receiver is turned into AREA files, using McIdas, without any type of
projection changes. My contact did not know the format of the satellite
data, before it is ingested by McIdas.

I found out the the satellite data comes in from the satellite receiver
in GVAR format.

Tom:
I plan on giving the AWC a couple of days to make some progress. If they
aren't getting anywhere, then it is time for me to get to work on the
problem.
I guess that I could use some help/advice in solving the problem myself.
The first step is to pull out the necessary data fields from a GVAR
file. The fields I am interested in are channels 1 through 5, and the
satellite, solar and relative angles. The second step is mapping the
field to a lambert conformal conic map projection, with an origin at
(-95,25) and both standard parallels at 25 degrees. Is it possible to
use McIdas libraries to write a stand-alone program to accomplish the
two steps above?
Regards,
Gary
