This site contains three JHU/APL/S1R IDL libraries. Many of the routines are related to IDL programming support. It is not claimed that these routines are the ultimate in efficiency, they work well for their original purpose, and may be of general interest. Some routines have been updated to take advantage of new features in IDL. Other routines will be updated in the future. These routines have not been tested for PV-WAVE. One demonstration library is also included to show how the eqv routine works. http://fermi.jhuapl.edu

The Space Physics Data Facility (SPDF) at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center uses IDL to provide browser-based plots and listings of heliophysics spacecraft and ground-based data in CDAWeb and OMNIweb. The IDL software is available as CDAWlib with source at http://spdf.gsfc.nasa.gov/pub/software/cdawlib. These services are also available through REST and SOAP interfaces, particularly easy to use within IDL.

AVIRIS is an acronym for the Airborne Visible InfraRed Imaging Spectrometer. AVIRIS is a world class instrument in the realm of Earth Remote Sensing. It is a unique optical sensor that delivers calibrated images of the upwelling spectral radiance in 224 contiguous spectral channels (also called bands) with wavelengths from 400 to 2500 nanometers (nm). The instrument flies aboard a NASA ER-2 airplane (a U2 plane modified for increased performance) at approximately 20 km above sea level, at about 730 km/hr. AVIRIS has flown all across the US, plus Canada and Europe. http://aviris.jpl.nasa.gov/
