Launch of System Blue delayed

[DavidEA]

With the delay of System Blue, is there any chance of opening up the data to people who pledge to add to the network when it becomes available?

I'm interested in the electronics side, but I really want to get my hands on that lovely, lovely data.

Hi,

Access to the data is granted after you have a completed station that is sending data to the network. To my knowledge, there aren't any exceptions to this. The data is not to be used for commercial purposes and/or monetary gain.

Hi John

It's not for monetary gain, I'm an armchair stormchaser/GIS/data junkie.

I can understand the restriction of only allowing participants to access the data as it promotes more people to set up stations.  Given the delay of system blue and the unavailability of red, I was hoping they would review that policy as an interim measure.  They could even give a grace period of a couple of months after blue's release and then remove access to anyone not participating in the network.

Cheers
