Radiannet Input File Format

Radiannet input files must be in one of two ascii formats. All fields seperated by spaces. Lat/Long values are in decimal degress, and brightness temperatures are in degrees celsius.
  1. Band 4 Brightness Temperature, Band 5 Brightness Temperature
    For example:
    -29.39 -19.27
    -11.63 -8.71
    etc...
    With a file such as this, it is not possible to produce maps of the results.
  2. Latitude, Longitude, Band 4 Brightness Temperature, Band 5 Brightness Temperature
    For example:
    55.1169 162.862 -29.39 -19.27
    55.1176 162.940 -11.63 -8.70
    etc...
    In this case, the lat/long values are "carried along" during the calculations, and the output file includes lat/long as well as the retrieved values. This makes it possible to produce maps of the results.
