[McIDAS #SXY-331778]: Unable to add historical wind profiler case study to ADDE server.

Hi Samuel,

re: access to "historical" (non-realtime) profiler data

Very good.

Unless I missed something when reviewing code in the MCGUI... the MCGUI is 
pretty
much hardwired for the standard set of RTPTSRC datasets; I don't see right off
how it can/will be useful with a new, user-added dataset.  I will look again and
revise the code if needed.  The code modification would be a longer term effort,
so please don't look for anything too soon.

Very good.

Excellent!

Yes.  I found that serving of imagery in AREA format is not using the 
subroutine I
developed for servers of imagery in GINI and NEXR formats.  The code review 
prompted
me to revisit the code I originally developed for the Nexrad Level III images 
for
the first time in several years.  I have been reworking that code to make it 
more
efficient and to support new constructs that will allow the serving of large 
datasets
more efficiently.  I have made good progress over the past three days, but I am 
not
finished yet.

OK.

As a heads-up for things that will occur in the not too distant future (later 
this
spring):

- the Antarctic IR image size will be increased
- an Antarctic WV image composite will be added to the datastream
- an Arctic IR composite will be added to the datastream
- an Arctic WV composite will be added to the datastream
- 15-minute South America image sectors from GOES-10 will be added to the
  datastream

Again, these changes will not occur until sometime in the spring.  There will
be an announcement to the members of the mcidas-x, gembud, idvusers, and
ldm-users email lists about the additions well in advance of their being
added to the IDD UNIWISC datastream.

Cheers,

Tom
