Available Data Types

satellite

2-D NumPy Array
returned by: awips.dataaccess.DataAccessLayer.getGridData(request, times=[])

example:

# Contrust a full satellite product tree
DataAccessLayer.changeEDEXHost("edex-cloud.unidata.ucar.edu)
request = DataAccessLayer.newDataRequest("satellite")
creatingEntities = DataAccessLayer.getIdentifierValues(request, "creatingEntity")
for entity in creatingEntities:
    print(entity)
    request = DataAccessLayer.newDataRequest("satellite")
    request.addIdentifier("creatingEntity", entity)
    availableSectors = DataAccessLayer.getAvailableLocationNames(request)
    availableSectors.sort()
    for sector in availableSectors:
        print(" - " + sector)
        request.setLocationNames(sector)
        availableProducts = DataAccessLayer.getAvailableParameters(request)
        availableProducts.sort()
        for product in availableProducts:
            print("    - " + product)
