BETA - DATA MODEL NOT RELEASED FOR PRODUCTION

GEOID09

[2009 Mar 09]
CONUS, Alaska, Hawaii, American Samoa, Guam, Northern Marianas Islands and Puerto Rico/Virgin Islands files available

Description

For working with the GEOID09 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 use GEOID09, download an INTG executable and at least one data file. You need only to select those data files that cover your region, 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.

Due to numerous requests, the binary formats of the eight data files have now been switched to the native format of Intel based PCs (little-endian). Users desiring IEEE Std. 754 binary format should process the desired files through XNTG (in a Unix environment) 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 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. Program intg (both platforms) automatically tests for little-endian or big-endian condition.
