Figure 2-3.—EOTDA infrared (IR) visualization display (tank with vegetation background). REVIEW  QUESTIONS Q15. EOTDA supports systems that operate in what part of the electromagnetic spectrum? Q16.    EOTDA predictions are based on what input? NAVY  OCEANOGRAPHIC  DATA DISTRIBUTION  SYSTEM  (NODDS) LEARNING  OBJECTIVES:  Describe  how Navy Oceanographic Data Distribution System (NODDS) products are obtained. Identify the products  that  are  available  from  NODDS. Identify the processing and display features of NODDS. The   Navy   Oceanographic   Data   Distribution System (NODDS) is a DOS based software program which makes environmental products from the Fleet Numerical Meteorology and Oceanography Center (FNMOC)  available  to  DOD  activities.  NODDS products   are   normally   obtained   using   standard telecommunications circuits (commercial/DSN/STU- III) but can also be obtained via NIPRNET, and e-mail. Data processing and display are accomplished using standard PC hardware. Users require ID and passwords to access the system. NODDS was first developed in 1982 as a means to make  FNMOC  environmental  products  available  to METOC facilities and detachments that had no direct access to this data. Through the years, the system has grown in use, and product support has expanded. The latest software version is NODDS 4.1. The program is normally installed on MIDDS, but can also be installed on any standard 486 (or better) CPU with a VGA color monitor,  hard  disk,  and  mouse.  A  minimum  9.6 kilobytes per second (KBPS) modem is required, but a 28.8 KBPS modem or greater is recommended. 2-14
