NOAA Operational Model Archive and Distribution System (NOMADS)
 Entry ID: NOMADS

[ Update this Record ]

Summary
Abstract: NCDC maintains a repository of weather model data sets and data assimilation
model data sets, and distributed access to climate model data sets. They provide
access to weather model forecast data in real-time as well as access to
historical data in the repository. They also provide a variety of ways to access
these data. You can access the on-line data using traditional access methods
(web-based or ftp), and you can use open and distributed access methods under
the collaborative approach called the NOAA Operational Model Archive and
Distribution System (NOMADS). NOMADS allows you to access numerical weather
prediction model data and global climate model data at many other sites on the
web in addition to the NCDC site.

Description: This web site provides access to the model data repository at NCDC. This
repository contains both archived (i.e.,off-line) and on-line model data. We
provide a variety of ways to access our weather and climate model data. You can
access the on-line data using traditional access methods (web-based or ftp), or
you can use open and distributed access methods promoted under the
collaborative approach called the NOAA Operational Model Archive and
Distribution System (NOMADS). With the NOMADS Web Interface you can create,
display, and download plots, use ftp to download parameters and files, and use
the NOMADS Distributed Data Server using DODS/OPeNDAP and the
GrADS-DODS/OPeNDAP Server (GDS) to access the data directly from your preferred
client or desktop. You can also perform remote calculations using scripts under
the GDS.
