Historical Notes:
SSEC has been designing and building satellite ingestors since the mid-1970s. The two most recent generations are contained on this page. The SSEC Data Ingestor (SDI-104; top box below) is the successor to the SSEC Desktop Ingestor (SDI; bottom box below), which were manufactured between 1997 and 2005 for DMSP, GMS, GVAR, Meteosat-5 and -7, MTSAT HiRID, POES and NOAAPORT. Beginning in 2005, the SDI NOAAPORT system was replaced by the NOAAPORT Receive System.
