Adding support for Mastcam PDS .dat images #51

Open godber opened 8 years ago

godber commented 8 years ago

Many Mastcam PDS images are distributed as compressed .dat files that need to be decompressed into .IMG files.

The source for a utility dat2img is available in the PDS to do this conversion:

It may be possible to build this using distutils:
