What am I doing wrong?
Posted: Thu Dec 03, 2009 2:43 pm
I've developed the following script, which I've abbreviated for clarity (and included line breaks here that don't exist on the real script):
DOWNLOAD,http://www.atmos.albany.edu/weather/dat ... \Documents and Settings\admjms\Local Settings\Application Data\DigitalAtmosphere\metar.dat
IMPORT,C:\Documents and Settings\admjms\Local Settings\Application Data\DigitalAtmosphere\metar.dat
ERASE
The problem is the IMPORT statement. When I run this script, the new data downloads just fine (I've looked at the resulting metar.dat file), but the map shows the data that was last downloaded by clicking the satellite dish image. For example, if I manually downloaded data by click on the dish for 13Z observations, then run my script in the 14Z hour (and metar.dat has the 14Z observations) the map still shows 13Z data.
And all of the OUTPUT.* files show the old file retrieval time. It seem that I need to tell DA to create the new OUTPUT files, but I don't know how.
What am I not doing?
