should work now, let me know if you see that problem again Ben Domenico wrote:
Hi John,This had been working great for me, but today it fails when I try to get subset a recent forecast from the server by using the link below with yesterday's date. Has something changed on that machine in the last few days?-- BenOn 4/1/06, *John Caron* < address@hidden <mailto:address@hidden>> wrote:An experimental new functionality in the TDS is available on our development server (motherlode:9080) for all the NCEP model data. See, for example: http://motherlode.ucar.edu:9080/thredds/ncServer/model/NCEP/NAM/CONUS_12km/NAM_CONUS_12km_20060401_1800.grib2?showForm <http://motherlode.ucar.edu:9080/thredds/ncServer/model/NCEP/NAM/CONUS_12km/NAM_CONUS_12km_20060401_1800.grib2?showForm> This allows one to subset gridded data and get back a NetCDF CF file. I mentioned this to David Maidment's student, but didnt get a response back. I also think this is what we should sell to OU/ADAS, WRF etc. The API is not final or complete, but it should be suitable to try out the functionality. A bit of documentation is at http://motherlode.ucar.edu:9080/thredds/docs/NetcdfServer.html <http://motherlode.ucar.edu:9080/thredds/docs/NetcdfServer.html> For good measure, I added WCS serving to all NCEP model data on 9080. Ben, I would guess that the "The OPeNDAP/OGC Gateway Work Plan" might want to crawl this catalog, looking for WCS access, and putting them into their WCS Catalog, but i havent yet read their plan closely.
