Jterry 43 Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 I believe its an acronym that has to do with the satellite system, or maybe the provider of the data. Not sure on how that went. EDIT...Here we go. More on McIdas... "Man Computer Interactive Data Access System" http://www.ssec.wisc.edu/mcidas/ Am I correct in saying the "HD" portion of it is because its very high-resolution data, and not because its broadcast in HD?
