The license that Unidata has with the primary McIDAS developers, the
Space Science and Engineering Center (SSEC) at the University of
Wisconsin-Madison allows us to distribute Unidata McIDAS to educational
entities worldwide.

Your organization, the 'National Meteorological Administration' sounds
like it might be a government entity.  If it is, you must get McIDAS
directly from SSEC (address@hidden).  If your institution is not a
government entity (i.e., its goals are for education and research), we
may be allowed to give your our distribution.  Please let us know more
about your institution so we can better judge who you need to contact
for McIDAS.
