 f970620t01p02_r03_sc01.a.hdr | This image is from the AVIRIS sensor. This data was taken from the AVIRS Free Standard Data Products Downloads Page at the NASA JPL website. This is the first flight line of the Moffet Field reflectance sample. The image was taken in 1997 and is of Moffet Field, California at the southern end of San Francisco Bay. The data file was renamed from .rfl to .bip and an ENVI header file (.hdr) was created to ease loading into Opticks. This image contains all 224 bands that the AVIRIS sensor collected with a wavelength spectrum from 400 to 2500 nanometers that covers the complete VIS-NIR-SWIR spectrum. |

 hicam_catch-gray.re.ice.h5 | This is a video taken from the Pro 100 camera system developed by Hi-Cam. This was taken from the the video gallery provided by Hi-Cam. The original video was in .mpg format and the image was converted by hand into the Ice format, while down converting to grayscale. This video was taken from a remote control plane and shows the plane flying over a field and then being caught by the remote control operator. In order to render this video in Opticks, select "View -> Create Animation..." after loading the dataset. Then press the "Play" button on the Animation Toolbar. |

The images below are from the ASTER sensor. See NASA and Wikipedia from more information on the ASTER sensor. The images were acquired from the Land Processes Distributed Active Archive Center (LP DAAC). The original HDF-EOS data was converted into the series of GeoTiff images seen below using the HEG Tool. All of these images are from the same collection of Las Vegas, Nevada on May 4, 2006.

 | This screenshots shows the provided shapefiles loaded into Opticks and overlayed on the "ASTER New York 2006 April 28" which is also provided as free Opticks sample data. This download includes 3 shapefiles: the area landmarks for Kings County of New York State, the area landmarks for Queens County of New York State and the Points of Interest for Queens county for the year 2007. These shapefiles were provided by the US Census Burea, specifically the TIGERLINE datasets.
In order to view these shapefiles in Opticks, you will need to download the "ASTER New York 2006 April 28" dataset also provided on this page. You will then need to drag and drop one of the GeoTiffs (.tiff) onto a running instance of the Opticks application. You will then need to Georeference the loaded dataset, by selecting "Geo -> Georeference" from the "Geo" toolbar in Opticks. Once georeferenced, you can drag and drop any of the shapefiles (.shp) onto the running instance of Opticks. At this point the shapefiles will have been successfully loaded. |
