8.12 Accessing Data Products from NOAA's GEO-IDE Framework (2-2-2015; new)

The general house-cleaning in MDL, caused by major upgrades to the Saga GIS software, have been completed.  The addition of nearly all the major formats to the GDAL Saga tools now allow us to visualize directly most of the grids that formerly required tedious conversions.  GRIB and HDF are primary examples.

As always, email me immediately if you have questions or problems.
