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.
