I do not think we can change this unless someone talks to NOAA. The plan now is - we use the source nsd_cccc.txt maintain our own file station_names.txt where we correct names, add mapping to states and regions and flag the stations status as operational, decommissioned or unknown. this seems sufficient to generate required files with much better quality and level of completeness than given at present regards ____________________________________________________ tde-users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Web mail archive available at https://mail.trinitydesktop.org/mailman3/hyperkitty/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
