>From: Hai-Tien Lee <address@hidden> >Organization: UMD >Keywords: 200207252115.g6PLFx908521 Unidata McIDAS-X Hai-Tien, >Thank you for your prompt reply and information. I will contact NESDIS >people to figure out if it is the IP filter that blocked my access. Sounds good. I can say for sure that it _is_ the IP filter that they have in place. I am sure of this given the error message you sent: "Accounting data was not valid". >I checked the web page you provided. The GOES Imager data are useful for me. OK. >I am curious about how the global IR and WV images were made. Unidata contracts with University of Wisconsin-SSEC to have these sectors made from their GOES ingest systems. We provide the images to Unidata IDD participants free of charge. >I'd like to >access other geosync satellite IR data too, if possible. Wouldn't we all! :-) >By the way, could you tell me where to find the listing of public McIDAS >servers? Sure: Unidata McIDAS HomePage http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/packages/mcidas Unidata McIDAS 7.80 http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/packages/mcidas/780 Documentation and Training http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/packages/mcidas/780/document.html Publically Accessible McIDAS ADDE Servers http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/packages/mcidas/adde_servers.html By the way, papagayo is out of action right at them moment since there is major work being done on its network. >Thanks.
