1. Introduction

This package contains a program that augments an HDF-EOS5 file so that the 
netCDF-4 library may access the augmented file by following the netCDF 
enhanced data model. This program adds HDF5 dimension scales to the HDF-EOS5
files by following the HDF5 dimension scale specification. The netCDF-4
library can then correctly obtain the dimension information of a variable. 

2. Installations

For detailed information, check section 2 of HDFEOS5AugToolUsersGuide.pdf. 

The following is a simple note on how to quickly install the package.
You need to have HDF-EOS5 and HDF5 C libraries to build the tool.

1) Use autoconf and automake
set CC to be /path/to/hdf5/bin/h5cc
. /configure --with-hdfeos5=/path/to/hdfeos5
make install

2) Use makefile.augment

Change the HDF5 and HDF-EOS5 path of makefile.augment under /src, run
make -f makefile.augment

3. Usage

For detailed information, check section 3 of HDFEOS5AugToolUsersGuide.pdf.
default option: ./aug_eos5 HDF-EOS5_file
file option:    ./aug_eos5 -f mapping_file HDF-EOS5_file
index option    ./aug_eos5 -i HDF-EOS5_file

To test with an example, follow readme under /examples.
	
4. Test

Go to the test directory, run ./test.sh
For other tests, follow the instructions at readme under /test.
 
5. Validation with netCDF-4 APIs

We provide simple validation programs in C and Fortran to verify if the 
augmented file can be accessed by netCDF-4 APIs.

Follow the instructions at readme under /validprog.

6 Tested Products

We have tested the augmentation tool against Aura HIRDLS, MLS, TES, OMI, MOPITT
and NASA MEaSUREs GSSTF products on 32-bit and 64-bit Linux, as well as  Mac.
OS 10.

7 Known Problems

The current HDF-EOS5 library(version HDF-EOS5.1.15) has a few issues that
may affect the use of the augmentation tool. We have been reporting these
issues to the HDF-EOS5 developer and hopefully these issues will be fixed
in the new HDF-EOS5 library release. In the mean time, we prefer users to
use the static utility we provided at http://hdfeos.org/software/aug_eos5.php.
The static utility is built with a modified version of the current HDF-EOS5
library that resolves those issues.

8. Limitations

Check section 4.3 of HDFEOS5AugToolUsersGuide.pdf.
