This is the place to find links
to various IDL code libraries and archives.
IDL
library at Forschungszentrum Juelich
A comprehensive collection of useful IDL routines..
Fanning Consulting;
Coyote's Guide to IDL Programming
A very well organized resource for IDL questions, tips, examples, training, and
consulting.
Liam Gumley's IDL
Links
Liam Gumley's site at the University of Wisconsin - Madison. Go here to find several
useful applications for satellite data processing, including SHARP, which is a shareware
software package for reading HDF data files containing Scientific Data Sets.
HipHop Handy
IDL-Program for HDF-Output
Plotting
HipHop is a graphical user interface (GUI) based IDL program that largely facilitates
the visualisation and analysis of 2D and 3D earth science data, in particular atmospheric
tracer distributions and meteorological fields.
RAT (Radar
Tools)
RAT is a small collection of tools for processing SAR (Synthetic Aperture Radar) remote
sensing data, packed together in a nice graphical user interface.
Hubble Space
Telescop Site
Public pictures from the Hubble Space Telescope, many of them processed with IDL.

USGS Spectroscopy Laboratory
Information about the USGS Spectral Library that is included in ENVI, imagery and
information on hyperspectral remote sensing, and data ready for download.
JPL AVIRIS Home Page
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.
The science objectives of the AVIRIS project are broad. In a nutshell, the main
objective is to identify, measure, and monitor constituents of the Earth's surface and
atmosphere based on molecular absorption and particle scattering signatures. Research with
AVIRIS is dominantly directed towards understanding processes related to the global
environment and climate change.
