[ncl-talk] Creating extinction coefficient spatial map from calipso L2

[Sunmin Park]

I uploaded the file (CAL_LID_L2_05kmAPro-Prov-V3…..) at incoming using ftp. I am trying to create extinction coefficient spatial map from this file.

thank you in advance,
Sun-

I am reading only one file to get the spatial map from the time and region. Like vdata I need to read latitude and longitude from the file (not hiding its on the list). I read lat and lon then I used “new” function and create 3D variable. I got figure however it showed lines (attached) but I need spatial map. I think I did setup lat and lon incorrectly but I am not clear about it.
