EOS-DIS data

eosdis_1.ncl: Creates a simple plot of reflectance with coordinates of scanline and pixel.
eosdis_2.ncl: Example of a radiance plot. Note that the color table is reversed from example 1.
eosdis_3.ncl: A plot of other EOSDIS quantities.
eosdis_4.ncl: EOSDIS data placed on a geographical projection.

This uses the 2D lat/lon array plotting procedure available in NCL version 4.2.0.a028 and higher (version 4.2.0.a025 contains the 2D plotting technique, but a bug that prevented this from being used with EOSDIS data was not corrected until version 4.2.0.a028).

The 5 added to the map limits is arbitrary. Here it is used to specify extra space around the plot.
eosdis_5.ncl: Illustrates the use of dim_gbits to extract bits of info. It also demonstrates explicitly labeling different colors with a specific integers.
