Re: No network
Tony EI8JK
Just updating.
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
Debbie at Eumetsat read about my woes on this forum and realised I was using old software, so she sent me the latest version (without being asked, I was most impressed .. thanks Debbie) Anyway, the updated software allowed me to get a mediocre intermittent signal from Eurobird 9 and noting that I am right on the edge of the footprint, I bought 110 cm dish to replace my 80 cm I now have 65% signal and quality and my hard drive is filling up nicely. As I want to run it over my network, tomorrow's job is to get Tellicast to save all the data in an accessible directory away from c:/program files. Things have changed a lot since I was last active on Eumetcast hopefully my brain will soon catch up. Tony, EI8JK

Re: New version of BUFRdisplay for NPP data, including Linux
Simon Proud <simon.proud@...>
No worries, happy to help - linux compatibility is a major headache.
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
Today I tried the windows version (with -l) and it works great! Loads with no problems and it works with the majority of BUFR files we produce, aside from the NWC-SAF files that we talked about before. FYI I list below the NWC-SAF files that work and don't work. Don't think this is me asking for more stuff (!) but I thought you'd like to know, in case anyone else asks about them: AMA T-ridge: Works, displays data nicely. AMA WV strip: displays message 'not supported BUFR format' RDT: Program hangs on opening the file. ASII IRAMV and WVAMV: Both load but simply show a lat/lon grid of points on map generation. I think this is because it is 'location' data (lots of data fields, one for each point) but each point is also a vector (with U + V components). Saving to csv file works perfectly, though. Thanks again for the work you've put in - we all really appreciate it here in Copenhagen! Hope you've enjoyed the weekend, Simon

Following receipt of this from EUMETSAT
News information: ***Meteosat-8 RSS Service only*** From 11:00 RSS repeat cycles were disseminated with non-nominalquality until further notice. I viewed my animations. There's quite a north south wobble of the image. Wonder whether Met 8 has been clouted or just some motors/thrusters gone awry. Alan

Thanks for the feedback, Simon - it's just what I was after, as I was afraid something like this would happen. I would like to try and work around this business of incompatible system libraries, having been bitten by it already. I've a few other jobs to finish first, but will have a look at it asap. By the way, if you are using the Windows version and wondered what happened to the 'Locations' button I put in for you earlier this year, it's now activated by a -l (ell) command line option. I felt that it might not be generally useful and might confuse things. Francis

Hello Francis,

I just tested this on one of our linux systems (Ubuntu 11.10, 64bit) and unfortunately it does not run.I get an error stating that GLIBC_2.14 was not found. A quick google shows that this is because Ubuntu 12.04 uses an updated GLIBC that is not compatible with older distributions. Is there any way to remove or down-version that depedancy? Cheers, Simon

Francis,

Many thanks for the update. The new NPP is displaying perfectly, but as it is coming in at times out of order, it is better to leave it for a few hours and then display it without gaps. I shall be checking other data as well, but at the moment I cannot spend much time on my hobby due to caring duties. Regards Ian.

Re: Cold anomaly in NE Portugal
Are you converting the data into an imprecise data type (such as 8bit int)?
Depending on the scaling you apply it could be that the values in that region (~350K) are too high for the data type and so 'roll over' into a very low value. This happens to us occasionally when calculating reflectance in the twilight region. /random guess Cheers, Simon ===================================== Simon, Likely the guys are using the images from the MSG Data Manager software. The thermal scaling applied to the images avoids wrap-around artefacts such as you mention.

Re: Cold anomaly in NE Portugal
Nick,
Unless you are using an inverted palette, black on a IR image translates into hot, not cold. It looks to me as a small hot spot, probably a fire as suggested by Terence, but it is odd that it shows up best in Ch4 and much less so in Ch9. Best regards - Alan S ================================ It's not really "odd". Channel 4 is most sensitive in the 3-5 um waveband, corresponding to temperatures around 600K (~327C) as found in fires. Channel 10 is optimised for radiation at 300K (~27C), that of the natural ground around us. See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black-body_radiation Note that one issue with channel 4 is that there is also significant reflected solar radiation from the Earth in that waveband, so that the image differs between day and night. Black hot is often used for thermal images, as that makes the colder clouds show up in white. Channel 4 is used for fire detection, perhaps using channel 10 as a reference to the expected background temperature so that hotspots can be detected. I hope no-one has been injured in the fires.

Evening all,
Any one else see the _very_ cold (black) area in NE Portugal in the last few IR images? Very obvious in Channel 4 from about 18:30 to 19:15? Also on several other wave-lengths but not so obvious. Any ideas as to what/why? Regards Nick
