RSL_rapic_to_radar
Synopsis
#include "rsl.h"
Radar *RSL_rapic_to_radar(char
*infile);
Description
Reads a RAPIC (data from Berrimah Austrailia) file and returns a pointer
to the structure Radar. The input file is specified by the string
infile. If infile is NULL, then stdin is read. The input
file may be compressed. If the data is compressed, it is passed through
the GNU gunzip filter. Thus, compressed data can be any format that
gzip understands.
The radar structure is, essentially, an array of Volumes. These volumes
represent several field types, including but not limited to, reflectivity,
velocity and spectrum width fields.
Return value
Upon successful completion, RSL_rapic_to_radar returns a pointer to the
structure Radar. Otherwise, NULL is returned and errno is set.
