[ncl-talk] CALIPSO L2 vdata

[Wei Huang]

Sun,

I have checked the file (which you put on our ftp site).
There are nothing related to "liar altitude".

You may try NCL script:
 flnm = "CAL_LID_L2_05kmAPro-Prov-V3-02.2012-03-22T10-02-21ZD.hdf"
 f = addfile(flnm, "r")

 print(f)

or: ncl_filedump filename
to see all the variables.

I have also checked with HDFView, which do not have such variable neither.

If you can tell us more about what you want to do with this dataset,
We'd like to help you.


Wei
