Any and all help will be appreciated!!! This is an abbreviated version of an article posted last month. It mentions a binary executable for viewing VICAR images on a PC. Paul O'Keefe SUNY at Buffalo --------------- Article: 17444 of comp.graphics From: baalke@mars.jpl.nasa.gov (Ron Baalke) Newsgroups: comp.graphics Subject: Magellan Images Date: 25 Mar 91 01:25:12 GMT Organization: Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, CA. =================== MAGELLAN IMAGES March 24, 1991 =================== I've placed five more Magellan images in VICAR format and 18 in GIF format at the Ames SPACE archives, bringing the Magellan total to 19 VICAR images and 46 GIF images. All of the images are obtainable via anonymous ftp from ames.arc.nasa.gov (128.102.18.3), and are in the pub/SPACE/VICAR and pub/SPACE/GIF directories, respectively. All of the Magellan images I've uploaded to Ames are public release images from the Magellan project, and are in the public domain and can be freely distributed. The five new VICAR files and their sizes are: alpha.img 1,049,600 bytes lavin.img 1,049,600 bytes ovdac.img 1,574,400 bytes ovdan.img 3,147,776 bytes tick.img 2,347,458 bytes All of the VICAR images have a corresponding caption files (with a .txt extension) which contains detailed descriptions of the image. Make sure you are in binary mode when transferring the image files, and in ASCII mode when transferring the text files. The new caption files are appended to the end of this message. The VICAR images can be viewed on an IBM PC computer with the IMDISP program stored in a zip file called imdisp56.zip, located in the pub/SPACE/SOFTWARE directory. I am one of the programmers for IMDISP, and would welcome any feedback on the program. The VICAR format is used by the Image Processing Lab (MIPL) at JPL. Most of the VICAR images are in 1024x1024 pixel resolution and are about 1MB in size.
