Just to be clear - we can read the file from local disk and it is relatively quick. You can bin and spatially subset the data as well. We are working with the TDS developers to implement these features in the remote access protocol. Don John Caron wrote:
Hi Rodrigo:I checked with the IDV developers. Currently IDV is not able to read in station data such as Surface_METAR_20070410_0000.nc. We are working with them to make sure this happens ASAP. If you are reading ok in ToolsUI, you probably have done everything right on the TDS.John. Rodrigo Sanchez wrote:Hi, Recently I have installed thredds to serve some data from our ldm site...

I did a catalog follow the example in tomcat/content/thredds/ and tomcat/content/thredds/idd today I was trying to use idv to see the catalog and everything works great.. but surface data (Metar stations) doesn't work ..

Idv can't load the data, but when I use a browser, the same file works ok..http://machine:8080/thredds/dodsC/station/metar/Surface_METAR_20070410_0000.nc.htmlthe netcdf 2.2 tools UI works ok too:dods://machine:8080/thredds/dodsC/station/metar/Surface_METAR_20070410_0000.ncso... it is a thredds, idv or configuration stuff ? thanks in advance===============================================================================To unsubscribe thredds, visit: http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/mailing-list-delete-form.html==============================================================================================================================================================To unsubscribe thredds, visit: http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/mailing-list-delete-form.html===============================================================================
