Retrieving GIS-friendly NDFD Data
Overview
Users can gain access to National Digital Forecast Database (NDFD) data using a variety of
Geographical Information Systems (GIS) clients. These clients understand data encoding formats like
Geography Markup Language (GML) and Keyhole Markup Language (KML). The Simple Object Access Protocol
(SOAP) service supports these two GIS-friendly data encoding formats. This page describes how to
use ArcGIS, Google Earth, Google Maps and uDig to import NDFD data using the SOAP interface.
