New Stations for the URMA

Youngling Posts: 18 Join Date: 1/19/16 Recent Posts

There's some stations that our avalanche partners set up a while ago with meso-west ID's SPRMT and LKMMT and it doesn't look like they've made it into URMA yet.

 

Is there a form somewhere I should be filling out to get these added, or this the best way to request stations to be added?

 

Should they get added automatically through some process?

Hi Ryan,

We reached out to MesoWest and they were able to get the stations added to their feed.  We are now using observations from both stations, beginning with today's 00Z URMA.

In the future, you can either send the station IDs though the VLab forum or use the RTMA/URMA Station QC form.  On the Google form, there is an option to select "Ob is valid, not used"; you can select this and leave a comment letting us know this is for a new station.

Thanks,
Matt
