Hi Justin,

re:

I believe that all imagery in EUMETCast is wavlet compressed, so this agrees
with my view that the 'C' in the segment file name indicates that the
segment is compressed.

re:

I will take a look to see how hard it would be to transfer the logic/code
that deals with wavelet compression in the MSGT ADDE server to the FSDX
server.  I have to assign this effort a relatively low priority, however,
since I am currently consumed with updating the Unidata McIDAS-X/XCD
documentation so that it corresponds with the v2016 release that I am
ready to make available.

I'm curious what your use of the LRIT data is?

Cheers,

Tom
