+The script in this folder will create a catalog.xml output that can be
+used by the thredds server. This script is run every day and will update
+the thredds server to show the latest data available.
+
+The script writes the catalog.xml to a folder that is similair to the
+example 4.6.8 thredds server.
+
+This script is used with cronjob and the following little script:
+
+```
+#!/bin/bash
+
+cd /home/ubuntu
+./thredds.sh > thredds/catalog.xml
+/usr/sbin/service tomcat8 restart
+```
+
+The output of the script can be found at:
+https://terraref.ncsa.illinois.edu/thredds/
