CD2ISIS - Convert PDS CDROM compressed and uncompressed image to ISIS

CD2ISIS - Reads a PDS image on a CDROM and converts it to ISIS format.

CD2ISIS handles VOYAGER and VIKING images stored on CDROM. A new feature
has been recently added to read PDS image files with detached labels.
This new feature currently has been tested only on the PRE-MAGELLAN
CDROM disk. If a PDS detached LABEL/IMAGE files are  to be read, provide
the name of the label file (*.lbl) in the FROM= parameter.

CD2ISIS was developed to handle VOYAGER and VIKING images stored on
CDROMs in the PDS image file format.  The program can convert both
compressed and uncompressed PDS image files which conform to version 1.0
of PDS' Object Descriptor Language (ODL). The original VOYAGER Space
Science Sampler disc (March 25, 1987) and the PDS interactive Data
Interchange Space Science Sampler disc of the same date can not be
accessed by this program.  You will need to continue to use the original
CDIN program for accessing this data.

ADDITIONAL NOTES:

ParmDescription
FROM
Device, directory and file name specification of PDS image
on the CDROM. Shown below is an example of a file
specification.

       FROM=/cdrom/miranda/c2684xxx/c2684629.imq

Besure to include the directory, name, and extenstion in
the file specification.

If the file to be read is a PDS detached label/image file
then enter the name of the detached label.
TO
Output image file name. output of CD2ISIS is an ISIS
formatted file.
TMPFILE
Intermediate temporary file name created during the
processing.  This could potentially be a large file
depending on the size of the input image.  This file
name could also contain a path if the file should
need to be created in another directory.  Note that
this file is deleted upon completion of the generation
of the output ISIS cube file.
SWAP
This parameter allows a user to specify that 16-bit
and 32-bit integer bytes are to be swapped before
processing the pixels. Sometimes the byte order
of an image file needs to be reversed.
Permitted values are YES or NO
