India meteorological subdivisions

[jon]

Hi Jennifer,

I am still attempting to parse the differences in the data in the
following two links;
both links were reached from the one you sent below.

http://www.monsoondata.org:9090/dods/iitm/subdiv/mon_total.info

http://www.tropmet.res.in/data.html

The first link has data through 2000 and 29 regions which match the
polygon file you noted but do not match
the division in the second link which has  data through 2004.  The
principal difference
is that the updated file includes region 27 (Chattigraph) which has
apparently been
merged into region 20 (East Madhya Pradesh) along with part of region 19
(West Madhya Pradesh).

If anybody has any information/guidance, I sure would appreciate it....

Regards,
Jon
