These experimenter-supplied, stereo high-resolution data are on EBCDIC magnetic tape created on an IBM 360 computer. The data are picture images with each horizontal line of picture elements (pixels) represented as one logical record. Each image file on tape consists of a series of label records followed by 512 records of pixel information. The label records contain parameter information for the associated image. The length, in characters, of the physical label records is equal to the number of pixels in a horizontal image line or 360, whichever is greater. The label record contains the following parameters - satellite identification; camera number; diode; stepsize; channel/mode; azimuth; elevation; offset; gain; scan rate; data rate; data path; total lines; rescan begin and total; sun azimuth and elevation; anti-solar azimuth and elevation; event day and time of day; standard deviation; number of missing lines and gaps; percentage of missing data and source tape and file number.
