Hi Tony,
The VisAD client library for ADDE has been updated to include navigation
for AHI on
Himawari-8, but not yet calibration. In this case, local AREA files will
have to already
be calibrated, or your request to an ADDE server, local or remote, will
need to specify
returned data is to be calibrated. Otherwise, should work as before.
Here's where
you can get the VisAD nightly build:
ftp://ftp.ssec.wisc.edu/pub/visad/nightly/visad.jar
Although cal/nav is similar between AHI/ABI (GOES-R), it doesn't look
like VisAD is
ready for ABI via ADDE. However, all GOES-R data is also available in
NetCDF-4 and
we have Java code which could be used to create custom VisAD adapters.
Alternatively,
McIDAS-V and the IDV already support the ABI stored in NetCDF-4.
Feel free ask any other questions.
Cheers,
Tom
