Dear Dr. Dan,<br>
<br>
I tried to pull the following small tarball and since it is a ONLY ONE
band BIL I feel it could be display using GrADS.<br>

<br>
Looking at the Header I tried. Please see the attached ctl and image
file. It is a 16 bit raster image but I feel the valid data is max 581
(within 10 bits) kg per sqr m. I did not understand what is meant ny
axis offset, so just ignored!<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>

<div>I am trying to download and view a gridded dataset of 24hr
snowfall from NOAA/NOHRSC using GrADS. So far, I've downloaded the
dataset in question, un-tarred it and briefly read through some
information about the data type. It would appear to contain 2 files,
one a text header and the other a binary raster file. Does anyone know
if GrADS will accept this as a data type, and if not, how to convert it
to something a little more "GrADS-friendly"? I've worked with binary
files in the past so I'm aware that GrADS can use binary files so long
as there is a control file specified, however I wouldn't even know
where to begin looking for or creating a control file from scratch. </div>

<div>The data in question can be accessed here...</div>
