Summary
Abstract: NSIDC's Data Viewer is an IDL Catalyst Library application that can be used to display select data sets available from NSIDC. Developed by NSIDC Science Programmer David Fanning. With the DataViewer you can open any number of images, include entire image directories and view them as single images, or in a user-definable grid of up to 8 by 8 images. Images can be manipulated from within the DataViewer, and multiple images can be animated. Any image that can be read with Read_Image can be read with the DataViewer, although only NSIDC map-projected images can be displayed with map and grid overlays.
