Software description:
Name Description
DOS/PWS16PC displays 4 second PWS data on IBM/DOS platforms. For
additional information please refer to the 'PWS16PC Users
guide,' available at /SOFTWARE/DOS/PWS16PC.TXT and
/DOCUMENT/SOFTDOCS/PWS16PC.ASC. This software was
developed and provided by the PWS Team at the University
of Iowa. This software is provided 'as is' without
warranty of any kind. PDS disclaims any implied warranty.
WIN/WMIDAS creates a variety of plots of the PRA data contained on
this volume on various platforms. This software was
developed and provided by the PRA team. This software is
provided 'as is' without warranty of any kind. PDS
disclaims any implied warranty.
SOFTDOCS/PWS16PC 'PWS16PC User's Guide' a description of the PWS16PC
software provided by the PWS Team (University of Iowa)
for viewing the PWS data contained on this DVD-R
SOFTDOCS/SPLASH a user's guide for the SPLASH software provided by the

In addition to the software contained on this DVD-R, the following sources
have software designed to work with some of the data contained on this
DVD-R:
The PDS has produced a number of general purpose software tools designed for
use with PDS labeled files. This software is distributed by the PDS Central
Node. For more information, or to obtain this software, contact the PDS Home
Page website (http://pds.jpl.nasa.gov), and select the 'PDS Data and
Services' link.
The NAIF Toolkit, designed for use with the SPICE kernels, is available
through the PDS Navigation and Ancillary Information Facility (NAIF) Node.
For additional information on the Toolkit or how to obtain it please contact
Chuck Acton (INTERNET: cacton@spice.jpl.nasa.gov, DECNET: NAIF::CACTON,
PHONE: (818) 354-3869) or check the PDS website's link to the NAIF node for
current NAIF contact information.
Finally, the PDS/PPI node is aware of software, either under development or
already available, which may be used with some or all of the data found on
this volume. This includes software for performing coordinate
transformations between various Jovian coordinate systems as well as
generating additional ephemeris in these systems. For information about this
software or help with any of the other software found on this DVD-R, please
contact the PDS Operator at the PDS/PPI node:
