Export cube to an ascii file

Overview Parameters Example 1

Description

This program converts sn ISIS cube to ASCII file format. Special pixels such as NULL, LIS, LRS, HIS and HRS have predetermined pixel values. You may opt to assign a range of pixel values to the individual Special Pixels using the SETPIXELVALUES parameter. Bands in the cube will be output in band sequential format.

Beware: The output file will be roughly 3 times as big as the input.
