ATMS SDR 2.0.1 insufficient USNO-PolarWander-UT1-ANC-Int anc

Post by smasse »

I am running atms_sdr.sh (SDR 2.0.1) on pass 20141204195832 and fails to generate datasets.
Can anyone tell me what is the meaning of the "insufficient USNO-PolarWander..." messages
in the log shown below?

Dear Sir,

The message means that the Polar Wander files you are using are too far out of date. Are you running the atms_sdr.sh script and using the default method of downloading the required ancillary files as they are processed, or are you acquiring the files in some other way?

I am running atm_sdr.sh and using the defaults for SDR 2.0.1.

Very strange. I am sorry you are having problems. Have you ever had problems like this before?

Can you please provide us with the RDR file you are trying to process? Feel free to push it to our anonymous ftp site if you would like at: ftp://ftp.ssec.wisc.edu/pub/incoming/

We have identified your problem as a bug in the script that chooses the correct Polar Wander ancillary file. It was introduced with the release of the new v2.0 CSPP SDR software package. This bug does not affect real-time processing, but will affect some days when processing historical data sets. To fix this problem, first delete your local version of the ${CSPP_SDR_HOME}/common/get_anc_jpss_polarwander.bash script, and replace it with an updated version: ftp://ftp.ssec.wisc.edu/pub/CSPP/pw_scr ... ander.bash . Make sure the file is executable: chmod guo+x ${CSPP_SDR_HOME}/common/get_anc_jpss_polarwander.bash and try processing your data set again.

We also strongly recommend that you update your version of RT-STPS to the V 5.6, the current version, which handles the new S-NPP direct broadcast in a better way.

Please let me know if this resolves your problem, and we apologize for this inconvenience.

Kathy
