Re: Improved Scatter Plot control

Hi Ghansham,

Thanks for the code! I added it to McIDAS-V inquiry 2698 for us to test and evaluate incorporating into McIDAS-V. I'll let you know if we have any feedback as we look into it.

Thanks again,

Re: Add server to MCIDAS-V

Hello, When I created this list earlier I was likely using data servers from our Satellite Data Services (SDS) group in our building. These servers/datasets do require accounting information, which must be obtained from SDS. If you are interested in pursuing this option, there is a "Contact Us&...

Re: reading Sentinel-3 SRAL files fails

Hi HP, I figured it out. This isn't a gridded netCDF file (which McV tries to load the data as), but a point netCDF file. Through the General>Files/Directories chooser, select "netCDF/GEMPAK Point Data files" from the Data Type dropdown, select your file, and click Add Source. From working...

Re: reading Sentinel-3 SRAL files fails

Hi HP, I'm replicating that this file is giving the Non-Compliant NetCDF Tool window at Add Source. I went back several McV versions and I'm getting this same result all the way back to version 1.3: Nightly (2021/11/15) Core 1.8 (release date - 2018/12/04) Core 1.7u1 (release date - 2018/01/25) Core...

Re: Make Data Source Local

Thanks for the explanation, that sounds like a good justification for writing the AREAs locally. I think my suggestion of running background scripts to write the AREAs might be the easiest solution for this, especially if you want things to run without much user interaction of if you plan on updatin...

Re: Make Data Source Local

Hello, There is no simple way of doing what you are suggesting. Is there any reason why you need the AREAs locally and can't work directly off of the remote server/dataset? Please note that the advice below might be useful if you have familiarity with Python scripting, especially in McIDAS-V. If I u...
