The DIAL Project is working with the ESIP Federation Air Quality cluster to create a prototype data viewer to explore how NO2 might be used in a decision-making environment. Below you will find more information about the viewer, an FAQ on its design and use, and other information.

Posted October 17th, 2007 by Bruce CaronVersion a007 quits when I click on the Data window...
Actually, you can click on the window all you want nothing happens... BUT if you click and move the mouse exactly horizontally or vertically,
this is an action that was not captured in the GUI. It sends IDL a "rectangle" with one side that is too small to output back to the screen. The NEXT version will capture this correctly. SOLUTION: don't click in the data window and move the mouse exactly vertically or horizontally... drag your mouse across the screen at an angle to create an ROI, or mouse over for data values. Sorry about that!
