In either case, realtime panning and zooming are supported, along with rotations for the 3D sphere view, assuming you have a strong enough graphics card.

  • Choice of 3D sphere or 2D Mollweide projection
  • Adjustable mapping from pixel value to color table range
  • View Temperature, Polarization or NumObs field
  • Save screen shots to image file
