This accesses all the data quickly.
directorydescription of files
globalTar
northTar
southTar
These files have been tarred and gzipped. Each gzipped tar file contains six SIR files, one for each polarity (horizontal, vertical) × image type (average sigma0, count, standard deviation).
globalAve
northAve
southAve
These are average sigma0 SIR files (both polarities). The gzipped tar files above already include these files, but not all users are interested in the gzipped tars' other files.
globalGif
northGif
southGif
These files are full images of the average sigma0 SIR files (both polarities). The web pages described below arrange them into tables.
aux For each region, two auxiliary files contain the longitude and latitude for the center of each pixel. The files are in SIR format like the product but have latitude or longitude values instead of sigma0 values.

2003 Data
This web page accesses the data year 2003. It loads slowly but displays a contact sheet of images.

Documentation

Read Software
This contains source code in C, Fortran, IDL, and Matlab to manipulate SIR files. These can be modified for the user's own purposes. There is also source code for a modified version of xv that can directly view SIR files.
