Originally, all data for a particular day were stored in daily subdirectories: /gps/nrtdata/yyddd, where yy is the two-digit year and ddd is the three-digit day of year. We are currently testing software that will store the data in subdirectories by hour: /gps/nrtdata/yyddd/## where ## is the two-digit hour of the day (00, 01, 02, ... 23). At this time, data are available in both the main directory (/gps/nrtdata/yyddd) and the hourly subdirectories as we test our software, thus giving users a chance to also modify and test their software. Sometime in the near future (probably late next week) the data will only be available in the hourly subdirectories. This new directory structure is the result of discussions with users during last week's IGS Network Workshop in Oslo Norway. Any questions about or problems with these plans should be directed to me at noll@cddis.gsfc.nasa.gov. Regards, Carey.
