Summary
misr_view is an IDL-based and graphical user interface-driven display and
analysis tool for use with many types of MISR and AirMISR data. It is
specificially designed for use with those MISR and AirMISR files that use the
HDF-EOS "grid" interface. These include MISR L1B2 georectified (map-projected)
radiance, MISR L1B3 radiometric cloud masks, all MISR Level 2 ... geophysical
products, the MISR Ancillary Geographic Product, and AirMISR L1B2 georectified
radiances. For MISR data, the user interface provides data selection for
specified orbits, paths, or observation dates, and enables translation between
these modes of identification. The interface to AirMISR data is simplified. The
display and analysis tools include simultaneous display of several data planes
through color assignment, contrast enhancement, data value query, image
rotation, creation of stereo anaglyphs, zooming, and linked analysis and view
windows.

misr_view has been developed by the Visualization and Earth Science
Applications Group of the Image Processing Applications and Development
Section at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory. Version 3.3 of misr_view, which
includes a User's Guide, is available for download free of charge from JPL,
upon completion of a misr_view license agreement:
