Joleen, In order to do it properly, the station database would need to be accessible from all of the choosers, the data probe, etc. and also would need a manager, so that users could add and edit their own stations. For the Level III RADAR chooser, when you click Connect it actually tells you that i...

Including the station is not a standard part of the ADDE request at all, even in McIDAS-X. It's up to the McIDAS-X client to convert the station to lat/lon and send the lat/lon request to the ADDE server.

Hello,

We are not supporting ISL in McIDAS-V and are encouraging users to do their scripting in Jython.

Try going through the Scripting tutorial on our website and see if that meets your needs -- http://www.ssec.wisc.edu/mcidas/softwar ... ation.html

IR Satellite Imagery is usually used to identify the ITCZ. You can do a google search to find some interesting studies on different detection methods.

To order data from EUMETSAT, you'll need to access their EO Portal: https://eoportal.eumetsat.int

The output format from getADDEImage has been updated in the latest nightly version of McIDAS-V. We have done extensive testing and do not expect any problems, but if you find any errors in your scripts, please let us know.

Hi Joleen,

From our testing, we believe that this is a threading issue. Jon is making changes to run createLayer on the event dispatch thread, which fixes the problem for us. I don't think he's checked that in yet, but I'll talk to him today and find out the status.

Glad to hear you got things resolved, and thanks for letting us know.

If you or your TA need any more assistance with McIDAS-V, please contact us again. If you can think of anything that would help in your class, let us know that, too.

Hi, Joleen -

We'll also notify the IDV folks of the problem.
