From: sydelko@camelot.es.anl.gov (Pam Sydelko)Does anyone know how I can extract Landsat TM image data from an 8mm tape?
I don't have a half-inch drive and ordered the data on 8mm, not thinking that
there isn't a GRASS tape extract program form 8mm tape drives.ANY IDEAS?

I feel one might be able to extract the files from 8-mm tape using unix
commands like tar and then use i.tape.other to extract the raster images from
these files. Though I haven't it this myself I was planning on doing this for
the same reason (no 1/2" tape drive).
Can somebody correct me if I am wrong ?
Thankyou,

p.s. We did try extracting the TM image data from a file on the harddisk
using i.tape.other and it seemed to be having some problems. Finally we did
manage to get an image that we can display.
