Version 6.11.7 of the LDM has been released. It fixes a
bug that caused the NOAAPORT ingest component to crash.
Here's the story:
The NOAAPORT Satellite Broadcast System contains a lot of
GRIB-2 messages. Such messages require external tables in
order to be interpreted. The NOAAPORT ingest component of
the LDM uses the tables that come with GEMPAK to interpret
GRIB-2 messages in order to generate meaningful LDM
product-identifiers. Unfortunately, not all tables are
complete and creators of GRIB-2 messages are free to add
data for which no corresponding table-entry exists.
