NAME

       ristosds - convert several RIS8 images to one 3D SDS

SYNOPSIS

       ristosds input-file-1, input-file-2...  [-o output-file]

DESCRIPTION

       ristosds creates a single HDF file consisting of a three-dimensional Scientific Data Set (SDS) from a set
       of  HDF  files containing one or more raster images. All images in the input HDF files must have the same
       dimensions. If a palette is to be included with the images, it should be in the first HDF input file. On‐
       ly one palette can be associated with the images; any additional palette data encountered by the  utility
       after the first palette has been processed will be ignored.

OPTIONS

       -o outfile
              Write the output to outfile.

EXAMPLES

       The   contents   of   a  directory  consists  of  20  files  named  "storm001.hdf",  "storm002.hdf".  ...
       "storm020.hdf". Each file contains a single RIS8 with a 100 x 200 raster  image.  A  file  that  combines
       these 20 raster images into a 32-bit floating-point SDS with the dimensions 100 x 200 x 20 can be created
       with the following ristosds command:

               ristosds storm*.hdf -o storm.hdf
