Access to SPC Format with POPEXAM
- Linux C++ Library for POP Data Access
-
Wayne Angevine and Dave Carter, both of NOAA, wrote a PDA library in C for PC programs needing access to POP spectral data files. EOL has slightly modified the library to port it to linux and added a C++ wrapper interface. The source distribution includes the popexam program, which prints data similarly to the examin32 program but also writes netcdf files.
There may already be binary executables built for your needs, especially for Linux 32-bit and 64-bit. Check in the download link below. The filenames include the OS, machine architecture, and version of the PDA source package for which popexam was built. The executables are statically linked with the netcdf library, so it is not necessary to install netcdf separately to use those programs. Otherwise, download the .tar.gz source package, unpack it, and see the installation instructions in the README file.

Henry Boynton
Henry Boynton can tell you what the atmosphere looks like at 51,000 feet above Earth's surface, a good 15,000 feet higher than most commercial airplanes venture. "The biggest thing you notice is that the sky is a lot bluer," he observes.
Marcel Verstraete
When Marcel Verstraete came to work at NCAR in May 1962, construction of the Mesa Lab was still years in the future. Scientists used slide rules instead of computers. And because there were no satellites to carry instruments, a major goal...
