[ncl-talk] CONUS-SOIL

[Dave Allured - NOAA Affiliate]

The BSQ binary file is a flat binary 3-D array of unsigned bytes.  This is
the simplest way to read in NCL.  I think I got the correct dimension
order, but please verify it.

    dims = (/ 11, 2984, 6936 /)
    codes = cbinread ("layertext.bsq", dims, "ubyte")
