AVIRIS DATA FACILITY

About the pub directory


Welcome to the Anonymous File Transfer Protocol (anonymous FTP) site of the JPL Airborne Visible/Infrared Imaging Spectrometer Data Facility (AVIRIS DF or ADF).

If you are using the World Wide Web, you can access the README.htm files in the various directories instead of the README files.

This site provides several services for AVIRIS investigators and other interested parties. The directories and their purposes are as follows:

  1. 92qlook, 93qlook, 94qlook, 95qlook, 96qlook: Read access to AVIRIS quicklook images. One directory for each flight season. See the top level README.htm file for ordering information. Each directory contains an INDEX file to ease selection.

    If you have NCSA Mosaic and xv, then you can set up your browser so you can view the online quicklooks as if they were GIF files. Instructions for browser setup are here.

  2. cal_files_92, cal_files_93, cal_files_94, cal_files_95: Read access to AVIRIS calibration files for each flight season, one directory per season.
  3. docs: Documentation for the other directories. Each file in this directory is duplicated in the directory where it applies.
  4. docs/html: Like the docs directory, but containing HTML files.
  5. incoming: Where ftp-ers can temporarily put files for people in the ADF to use.
  6. outgoing: Where ADF staffers can temporarily put miscellaneous files for outside parties to read.
  7. software: Where ADF staffers put source code and executables of programs we think will be of use to ftp-ers.
  8. solar: Where ADF staffers put solar irradiance spectra that are currently recommended for use with AVIRIS. Developed by Bo Cai Gao.

POLICIES:

All directories except incoming are protected against modification by anonymous ftp-ers.

The incoming directory is for adding new files only. Do not delete any existing files.

Both the incoming and outgoing directories are TEMPORARY storage only! Files put in either directory are automatically removed after three days. It is suggested that you communicate with ADF staff when planning to use either directory to ensure that the data is provided/received in time.
