REAL-TIME AND ARCHIVED ANTARCTIC METEOROLOGICAL DATA VIA A SYNERGY OF INTERACTIVE PROCESSING TOOLS

Over the last four years real-time numerical weather prediction, satellite and observational data have been distributed across the Antarctic Internet Data Distribution (Antarctic-IDD) system, a data-sharing network based on Unidata’s Local Data Manager (LDM) software (Lazzara et al., 2006). The dist...

Description
Summary:Over the last four years real-time numerical weather prediction, satellite and observational data have been distributed across the Antarctic Internet Data Distribution (Antarctic-IDD) system, a data-sharing network based on Unidata’s Local Data Manager (LDM) software (Lazzara et al., 2006). The distribution of data through the Antarctic-IDD has proven to be a successful way to easily distribute the real-time data. Recently, collaboration among United States Antarctic Program (USAP) and Unidata Program Center personnel has resulted in the establishment of a UCAR-based facility that provides programmatic and human-interactive access to the rich datasets available in the Antarctic-IDD. This effort employs the Unidata-developed Repository for Archiving, Managing and
