Data Object Naming Scheme
-
Base URL was:
http://web2.cdc.noaa.gov:9090/dods/
-
DODS-enabled client required, naturally
-
Data Object prefixes are based on the six subcategories used
in our archive:
Subcategory
|
Prefix
|
other_gauss / other flux
|
og
|
pressure level data
|
prs
|
spectral coefficients
|
spec |
surface |
sfc |
surface_gauss / surface flux |
sg |
tropopause |
trop |
Note: the only spectral coefficient data served is in a derived
category, as those few files are gridded.
The characters "da" are appended to the prefix for daily-averaged
data.
The infixes are the variable name, and other info, such
as statistic or level.

Example: prsda_hgt is daily averaged pressure level heights
