AWIPS2 at the 2011 Unidata Training Workshop

18 July 2011

Participants in the 2011 Unidata GEMPAK Training Workshop were the first class given the opportunity to test-drive CAVE (the Common AWIPS Visualization Environment). The UPC was testing a single-server standalone EDEX installation providing data for twenty CAVE workstations simultaneously. Although AWIPS2/CAVE is a 32 bit Java application, the UPC continues testing stability and usability on 64 bit systems. This single-server/multiple-client AWIPS2 configuration shows promise for University computer lab settings.
