The distribution directory contains the following compressed tar files. A complete SeaDAS installation including ocean data processing files (seadas_processing.tar.gz) requires about 1GB of disk space (not including optional digital elevation maps). Using runtime SeaDAS will add approximately 500MB to the installation.
