[awips2-users] Viewing Satellite Imagery in AWIPS II CAVE/NCP/D2D

Does satellite data have to be in a particular format, such as AREA or GINI
in order to be viewed in CAVE/D2D/NCP. I've tried dropping the satellite
data (such as Motherlode Gempak decoded) into awips2/edex/data/manual but
they don't get decoded into hdf5 format in awips2/edex/data/hdf5, but
instead are put in data_store/unknown.

Thanks
