GHRSST LTSRF Adds Two New Operational RSS Feeds
( Last Updated: 01-11-2007 )
The GHRSST LTSRF site now has two new RSS feeds to go along with its RSS News feed: one is an Operational Messages feed (http://ghrsst.nodc.noaa.gov/LTSRF_OpMessages.xml) and the other is an automated Operational Status feed (http://ghrsst.nodc.noaa.gov/LTSRF_OpStatus.xml). The Operational Messages feed is updated manually whenever changes occur in the archival processes. The Operational Status feed is updated automatically each day and indicates the red/yellow/green status of the archival processes and how many Archival Information Packages (AIPs, or NODC Accessions) were ingested into the archive that day. The status is set to "red" when no AIPs were ingested, "yellow" when between 1 and one less than the typical number ingested each day are ingested (currently, the typical number is 20), and "green" when the typical number or more are ingested (more than the expected or typical number can be ingested when backlogs are being processed). The automated LTSRF Operational Status feed attempts to conform to the draft GHRSST specification for automated status feeds.
