NAME

       MPNAME - Given the area identifier of one of the areas defined by whatever database was last read by one
       of the EZMAPB routines MPLNAM, MPLNDM, MPLNDR, and MPLNRI, this function returns the name of the area.

SYNOPSIS

       CHARACTER*64 MPNAME,NAME

       NAME=MPNAME(IAIN)

C-BINDING SYNOPSIS

       #include <ncarg/ncargC.h>

       char *c_mpname (int iain)

DESCRIPTION

       IAIN        is  an  input expression of type INTEGER, specifying the area identifier of a particular area
                   of interest.

C-BINDING DESCRIPTION

       The C-binding argument description is the same as the FORTRAN argument description.

USAGE

       Given the declaration "CHARACTER*64  MPNAME,NAME",  the  executable  statement  "NAME=MPNAME(IAIN)"  will
       retrieve  in  NAME  the  name  of  the  area with area identifier IAIN.  For example, if IMAD is the area
       identifier of the little island in Lake Superior called "Lake Madeline", then  MPNAME(IMAD)  =  'Madeline
       Island (Lake Superior)'.

       To  get  the  name  of  the  area,  at  a  specified  level,  that contains an area with a specified area
       identifier, use MPNAME in combination with MPIOAR.  For example, MPNAME(MPIOAR(IMAD,3))  =  'Conterminous
       US', and MPNAME(MPIOAR(IMAD,2)) = 'North America'.

EXAMPLES

       Use the ncargex command to see the following relevant examples: mpex11, mpex12.

ACCESS

       To  use MPNAME or c_mpname, load the NCAR Graphics libraries ncarg, ncarg_gks, and ncarg_c, preferably in
       that order.
