<div><STRONG>Hi there,</STRONG></div> <div><STRONG></STRONG> </div> <div><STRONG>i would like to make a correction. I took the data in binary format only , i just printed the lat, log and btd values in asci format for this mail as a example how values look like and to show its variations.</STRONG></div> <DIV><STRONG></STRONG> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I am workin on a project which maps brightness values[tb] over required region for Ascending and Descending passes of satellite carrying passive microwave radiometer </DIV> <DIV>as the satellite advances it gathers tb values.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>For the ascending pass[when satellite moves frm south to north] and descending[north to south] we have different lat ,long values and corresponding tb values.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV><STRONG>I wrote a program which writes out in binary these 3 below values in this order.<FONT size=1> </FONT></STRONG></DIV> <DIV><FONT

Shuld the binary data contain,the data in order of longitude,latitude,level ,variable and time. and if we dont have any level or time data ,is it enough to take them as fixed value in .ctl file if not as some constant value in binary file.</FONT></STRONG></DIV> <DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2></FONT></STRONG> </DIV> <DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2>Any help in tellin how to write the data descriptor file would be greatly appreciated. </FONT></STRONG></DIV> <DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2></FONT></STRONG> </DIV> <DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2>regards </FONT></STRONG></DIV> <DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2>smitha <BR></DIV></FONT></STRONG></FONT><p>
