Hi all,

A little off topic for GDAL as I'm not suggesting GDAL needs a driver for
this.

Does anyone know of tools other than McIDAS-X / McIDAS-V for reading older
NOAA GOES 08-15 data as described in the McIDAS Programmer's Manual
<https://www.ssec.wisc.edu/mcidas/doc/prog_man/2003print/progman2003-formats.html>
as
AREAnnnn - Area (image) files? e.g. the files here:

https://console.cloud.google.com/storage/browser/noaa-goes-legacy

One example file:

wget
https://storage.googleapis.com/noaa-goes-legacy/goes11/2010/008/goes11.2010.008.004514.BAND_04

strings goes11.2010.008.004514.BAND_04 | egrep -i '[A-Z][A-Z][A-Z][A-Z]'

might be a start but it doesn't look to readthe associated meta data so I
haven't even tried running it.

Thanks!
