MotoWeatherman Posted February 5, 2011 Author Share Posted February 5, 2011 How do you do multiple sites with StormLab? As you know with GRLevel3, you open up a new instance of the program. Another thing about GRL3, I wish you could assign a set of placefiles to each radar site. I might want certain things displaying for certain sites. and of course, as it is, you just have the one placefile manager that's generic for all sites. You basically have to redefine everything for each instance of the application. When you open SL the main SL "control panel" opens. Then you select the radar product you want to view and it opens that specific product that in a new window. You can go to SL site and use the full product in a free trial period. You don't have to give any credit card info or anything like that to download and try it. I think the placefile thing works the same in SL. IMHO SL is way more "customizable" than GR. http://www.interwarn.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaculaWeather Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 Well... it looks like I had installed it at some point in the past, I don't ever remember using it but now my trial has expired! Figures! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey Steve what's up. You may want to give Nexrad3 a try. It's not as sophisticated as GR3 and SL but it has it's positives. It does not support place files, backgrounds (only colors) and it's smoothing isn't as good as GR3. You can upload as many sites as you want with only one instance open. Has built in FTP You can customize the radar view with shapefiles. Radar view can support several radar sites depending on field of view. Has the new L3 HD data. P94r0. One thing I like is you can go back a view a full 24 hours of data. More if you keep the program running which I always do anyways. I don't have a web site but I do upload a couple images for my phone. First one is a single radar site image centered on my neck of the woods. This one uses smoothing. http://dmmk.org/new_page_41.htm Second one is a wider shot using the Tampa and Tallahassee radar sites with out smoothing. http://dmmk.org/new_page_42.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
