link fix_REL-3.1.1.2/fix to avoid super long downloading time (#197)
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
CRTMv3 code changed the behavior on how to find the local coefficient
fix files. It requires an existing `fix/` under the bundle directory.

Otherwise it will automatically start a downloading process to fetch a
tarball file from
`https://bin.ssec.wisc.edu/pub/s4/CRTM//fix_REL-3.1.1.2.tgz` and
unzip/untar it.

This downloading process is very slow. I tried it on Hera and Jet
recently and the download speed is about 400kb~800kb/s while the file
size is 7.3G. Anyone wants to experience this pain can try as follows,
:)
```
wget https://bin.ssec.wisc.edu/pub/s4/CRTM//fix_REL-3.1.1.2.tgz
tar xvf fix_REL-3.1.1.2.tgz
```

This PR creates that simple link (pointing to staged data under the
`RDAS_DATA` directory) and eliminate that pain.

It does not affect any current RDASApp functionalities, but supports a
smooth build process when one want to replace `sorc/crtm` with CRTMv3 in
his/her own offline play.
