[McIDAS #SDU-782063]: McIDAS - Restoring calibration after an IMGREMAP

Hi John,

Actually, the GINI data does not have a calibration block associated with
it.  The calibration is known apriori, and the server handles the mapping
from brightness to temperature.  What you can do is add a calibration
to the remapped image using the PRDUTIL utility.  This is a bit tricky
to use, so it would be helpful for you to provide me with the AREA
file output from IMGREMAP so I can give you detailed instructions on the
steps needed to calibrate the image.


Cheers,

Tom
