Re: [ldm-users] SSEC Global IR Composite (new product)

Hi Evan,

I also can't view the image on IDV(still using 4.1...upgrading to 5.0 is on the list of "tasks to do"), but it's viewable on Gempak's nmap2(using 6.10). The only thing I've noticed since we started ingesting the files(IR and WV) is that nmap doesn't plot a geographic background nor can I zoom in on any particular spot on the picture. Perhaps the navigation information within the file is different from Mcidas area files and gini image files.

I've attached the gif image(with IR color enhancement) from nmap2.

Hi all,

Has anyone started ingesting the new SSEC Global IR composite imagery (new Apr 2014)?

Global Rectilinear Thermal Infrared composite  20 km  PNGA ?new product

Details of updated / new files:

I added the example pqact entry:

http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/data/rtimages_pqact.html#GLOBAL-IR

The resulting files (sample attached -- apologies for the file size) are coming up garbled when loaded into the IDV / GEMPAK. Has anyone had success ingesting the data? I wasn't sure whether this was an issue with the incoming data, the pqact entry, perhaps the pnga2area decoder, or just user error.

Thanks,

Evan Lowery
