does anyone have a hint on how to unpack avhrr hrpt data from noaa
satellite active archive (SAA)? the data is provided via ftp in 8 or
10bit format, but the files are packed in some obscure way, the relevant
documentation (POD-polar orbital data guide) does only provide a fortran
routine for unpacking, I wonder if anyone already has a solution to this?
the images are intended for wildfire monitoring in northern guatemala
help would be appreciated

I'll look into it, but why are you not using
the Sharp format? Where are your data coming from?
Regarding your subject, you should look into

estimado augustin,
los datos provienen directamente del servidor SAA (satellite active
archive) de la NOAA, y están en el formato original como se almacenan
desde la estación receptora (level 1b). hablando con la gente que
trabaja estas imágenes para el NESDIS/OSEI (operational significant event
imagery) estos manifestaron que efectivamente usan un programita (en C)
para desempacar los archivos, se está averiguando si nos lo pueden pasar
o no (asuntos de copyright). lamentamos admitir que desconocemos el
formato sharp (aunque me parece haber visto alguna referencia en mis
busquedas en el web).
adjunto te envio la documentación correspondiente al formato de datos
que necesitamos trabajar, si se te ocurre algo haznoslo saber
cordiales saludos
