Hi IDV Users,
I'm having difficulties getting some POES AVHRR data to display in IDV3.1.
I downloaded the files from NOAA's CLASS website, grabbing Global Area
Coverage (GAC) dataset files (extension GC). Then I'm converting them
to netCDF using sat2netcdf, which produces .nc files. Several warning
messages occur during the conversion process such as...
Illegal netCDF-3 attribute name = lat/lon
(I've turned all the header flags on)
Trying to import them into IDV gives me an error "Importing as type
GRID but no grids found"
ncdump on the files produces what looks to be a valid grid file, but
maybe the format is incompatible with IDV, suspected given the
warnings given above.
any ideas?
thanks,
Mark
