Acces to Data of the Server unidata2.ssec.wisc.edu whit McV
I'm connecting to the server unidata2.ssec.wissc.edu, via ftp, to get data of the GOES 10 and 12 satellite . Is there any way to access these data directly from McIDAS V?

Hi Boris -
Unfortunately, you can not directly access this data in McIDAS-V because there is a username/password to sign into the FTP site:
ftp://unidata2.ssec.wisc.edu
You are able to enter URLs in the General->URLs chooser in the Data Sources tab of the Data Explorer. However, when using FTP sites, the only ones that work are anonymous and do not require a username/password.
You can, however, download the individual files from the FTP site and create a local ADDE dataset. From there, you can load the images into McIDAS-V through the Satellite->Imagery chooser.
Are you looking for current or archived GOES 10 and 12 data?
