Usage: l2brsgen argument-list This program takes a product from a L2 file, subsamples the file and writes a browse file The argument-list is a set of keyword=value pairs. The arguments can be specified on the commandline, or put into a parameter file, or the two methods can be used together, with commandline over-riding. The list of valid keywords follows: -help (boolean) (alias=-h,--help) (default=false) = print usage information -version (boolean) (alias=--version) (default=false) = print the version information -dump_options (boolean) (alias=--dump_options) (default=false) = print information about each option -dump_options_paramfile (ofile) (alias=--dump_options_paramfile) = print information about each option to paramfile -dump_options_xmlfile (ofile) (alias=--dump_options_xmlfile) = print information about each option to XML file par (string) = input parameter file ifile (ifile) = input L2 file name ofile (ofile) (default=output) = output filename prod (string) (default=chlor_a) = product name quality (int) (default=999) = highest quality value acceptable rflag (string) (default=ORIGINAL) = replacement flag flaguse (string) = Flags used to mask data chl_flags (string) (default=ATMFAIL,HILT,STRAYLIGHT,CLDICE,LOWLW,CHLWARN,CHLFAIL,NAVWARN,MAXAERITER,NAVFAIL,FILTER,HIGLINT) = Flags used to mask data for chl product if flaguse not set sst_flags (string) (default=SSTFAIL) = Flags used to mask data for sst product if flaguse not set spixl (int) (default=1) = start pixel number epixl (int) (default=-1) = end pixel number (-1=the last pixel) dpixl (int) (default=1) = pixel subsampling interval sline (int) (default=1) = start line number eline (int) (default=-1) = end line number (-1=the last line) dline (int) (default=1) = line subsampling interval apply_pal (boolean) (default=no) = apply color palette, false = grayscale palfile (ifile) (default=default) = palette filename. "default" means the palette is chosen using the product table file palette_dir (ifile) (default=$OCDATAROOT/common/palette) = directory containing the palette files product_table (ifile) (default=$OCDATAROOT/common/l2brsgen_product_table.dat) = product table datamin (float) (default=0.0) = minimum value for data scaling (default: see product_table) datamax (float) (default=0.0) = maximum value for data scaling (default: see product_table) stype (int) (default=0) = scaling type: 1=LINEAR; 2=LOG; (default: see product_table) outmode (int) (default=0) = format of the output file 0: HDF browse file 1: PPM color or PGM grayscale image file 2: PNG color or grayscale image file
