The Candis System -- Table of Contents

Candis is a general purpose analysis and display system for gridded

formats, e. g., Universal radar format, netCDF, etc.

1)  General -- Contains all general purpose cdf filters.
2)  Radar -- Contains all filters having to do with radar data.
3)  Raf -- Contains filters for dealing with NCAR Aviation Facility data.
4)  Hrd -- Contains programs for dealing with NOAA Hurricane Research
       Division aircraft data.
5)  Io -- Routines for reading and writing tape with preservation
       of physical record structure on tape.  Also, a routine for
       reading from a serial port.
6)  Doc -- Documentation (nroff/troff -ms format) for above filters
       as well as low level library and cdf file structure.
7)  Utils -- Low level subroutine library for dealing with cdf files.

       contains copyright notice include and include files for netCDF.
9)  Pgraf -- Portable graphics system.
10) Nws -- Routines to handle National Weather Service data received
       over the Zephyr satellite link and LLP lightning data.
11) Unidata -- NetCDF/Candis data format converters.

13) Pimage -- Portable image system (experimental).
14) Ng -- New generation of programs, each in its own subdirectory.
15) Scripts -- Useful shell scripts, mostly for handling nws and mcidas data.
16) Data -- sample Candis files in ascii format.
17) INSTALL -- installation instructions for the Candis system.
18) COPYING -- copyright notice -- please read.
19) RELEASE_NOTES -- The latest line specifies the version of the software.
       Notes between release lines indicate bugs fixed and programs added.
