SYNOPSIS

fis2raw [-v] fis_file

DESCRIPTION

converts a FIS file (FORMAT IMAGE STANDARD, .fis extension) into a RAW file

The FIS format is one of the numerous formats in which MSG (METEOSAT SECOND GENERATION) data are provided. In order to let the user read easily the content of such files without bothering with a new format, fis2raw converts it into a simple raw file (a simple binary array of values with no header).

OPTIONS

-v: makes fis2raw display the number of values in the output raw file and the size in bytes of each value (unfortunately, at the author's knowledge the FIS format does not provide information about the signed or unsigned nature of the values, so fis2raw cannot do miracles and you will have to figure it out yourself)
