PANOPLY panoply \PAN-uh-plee\, noun: 1. A splendid or impressive array. [...] INTRODUCTION Panoply is a Java application which enables the user to make plots of two-dimensional geo-gridded data from netCDF and HDF datasets, either global longitude-latitude plots, pole-to-pole latitude-vertical plots, or time-latitude "keogram" plots. 2D arrays may be "sliced" from larger multidimensional arrays (aka, variables). A large selection of global map projections is available for lon-lat figures. Plot images may be saved to disk in PDF, PNG, PS or GIF format. Panoply requires that a Java 7 or 8 Runtime Environment be installed on your computer. If one is not already installed on your computer, you will need to download and install a JRE from http://www.java.com/ DOWNLOADING The current version of Panoply, along with other information about the application, may always be found at http://www.giss.nasa.gov/tools/panoply/ INSTALLING AND RUNNING THE PANOPLY FOR WINDOWS PACKAGE The Panoply package for Windows comes as a zipped archive. You _must_ manually extract this archive. Some versions of Windows allow you to run programs from within a zipped archive without extraction. If you try this with Panoply, it won't work. The Panoply package for Windows should, after uncompression, include the following items: - Panoply.exe application. - Application code files in a folder called "jars". - This README file. To run Panoply, double-click on the Panoply.exe application. JAR FILES The sub-directory called jars _must_ remain in the same directory as the panoply.sh application, and all the "jar" files it holds must remain in the jars sub-directory. These file contain the Panoply application code and (re)moving any of them will break Panoply. HELP AND OTHER DOCUMENTATION More details about Panoply are available at: http://www.giss.nasa.gov/tools/panoply/ There are additional installation notes at http://www.giss.nasa.gov/tools/panoply/download_win.html which provide solutions for a few basic installation problems. COLOR TABLES AND CONTINENTS FILES Beginning with version 4, Panoply's "standard" selection of color tables and map overlays is built into the application. Additional color tables and map overlays may be opened for a single session or added to your favorites library for continued use. See the Panoply website for for such optional support files.
