BEAM installers for\r\ndifferent platforms can be downloaded from the BEAM website at\r\n\r\n  http://www.brockmann-consult.de/beam/\r\n\r\nFor installing the Metop Sounder Tools unpack the file\r\n\r\n  metop-sounder-tools-\u003cversion\u003e.zip\r\n\r\ndirectly into your BEAM installation directory. The directory structure of the\r\nzip-file is adapted to the structure of the BEAM installation directory.\r\n\r\nWhen there is a module 'beam-metop-avhrr-reader' of version 1.3 in the BEAM\r\nmodules directory, please remove the module manually. The Metop Sounder Tools\r\nrequire at least Version 1.4 of the module. Version 1.4 is distributed with\r\nVersion 1.0 of the Metop Sounder Tools.\r\n\r\n\r\nUsage\r\n=====\r\n\r\nAfter VISAT has been launched, try the following:\r\n\r\n1. In the VISAT main menu, use the file open dialog to open a Metop AVHRR\r\n   Level-1b Product\r\n2. Open a new product scene view for any band of the AVHRR product or create\r\n   an RGB scene view\r\n3. If residing in the same directory as the AVHRR product, the corresponding\r\n   IASI, AMSU and MHS products will automatically be loaded and displayed as\r\n   overlays on-top of the AVHRR image. The overlays also appear as additional\r\n   layers in the VISAT layer manager, where the visibility and transparancy\r\n   of individual layers can be changed\r\n4. For inspecting individual sounder IFOVs activate any of the sounder tools\r\n   arranged in the Metop toolbar - a group of three buttons with icons for\r\n   IASI,AMSU and MHS\r\n5. The usage of the Metop tools is further described by the Java help facility,\r\n   which can be invoked by clicking on the help button (question mark) located\r\n   in the lower right corner of each Metop tool\r\n\r\n\r\nSupport\r\n=======\r\n\r\nFor further support please contact:\r\n\r\nNorman Fomferra, norman.fomferra@brockmann-consult.de\r\nRalf Quast, ralf.quast@brockmann-consult.de\r\nMarco Z�hlke, marco.zuehlke@brockmann-consult.de\r\n\r\nBrockmann Consult\r\nMax-Planck-Stra�e 2\r\nD-21502 Geesthacht\r\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fbcdev%2Fmetop-sounder-tools","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fbcdev%2Fmetop-sounder-tools","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fbcdev%2Fmetop-sounder-tools/lists"}
