GEOID09

[2009 Sep 10]

CONUS, Alaska, Hawaii, Guam and Northern Mariana Islands, American Samoa files are available

Description

For working with the GEOID09BETA model, two computer programs are provided as compiled executables for both PC Win32 (INTG.EXE and XNTG.EXE) and Sun Unix (INTG and XNTG) platforms, along with the source code (intg_v220.zip and xntg_v11.zip). INTG interpolates geoid heights from data files using user-provided coordinates. XNTG extracts sub-grids from the binary data files, converts back and forth between binary and ASCII data formats, and gives statistics about a data file.

To determine geoid heights with the GEOID09BETA model, download an INTG executable and at least one data file. You need only to select those data files that cover your region of interest, and the program will recognize which files are present. Select one or more of the data files either by using the graphical or data interfaces.

The binary formats of all data files follow the IEEE Std. 754 binary format (big-endian) as they are developed in a Unix environment. Programs INTG, XNTG, INTD and XNTD are all designed to determine the user's platform and will automatically byte swap the data.

Users desiring a little-endian binary format (common to a Windows platform) should process the desired files through XNTG (on a Windows platform) and select option 2. The user should select the default spatial extents for the output file. Give the output file a unique name and then change it to the original input file name after the XNTG program is complete. The resulting file will cover the same range as the original file but will be byte-swapped. Repeat as necessary for the desired number of files.
