Description

This software reads EISCAT L2 compressed matlab (.mat.bz2) files and generates overview animations in webm format.

Usage instructions

1. Create a directory for input data
2. Copy .mat.bz2 data files to the input directory (typically one hour of data, or as selected by user)
3. Copy the file 'rtg_def.m' for your experiment to the input directory
4. Create a directory for output
5. Run with the input and output directories mounted at /srv/data and /var/tmp in the container, respectively.

Example (insert correct paths to the input and output directories on the host)

$docker run --rm --mount type=bind,source=host_data_path,destination=/srv/data --mount type=bind,source=host_output_path,destination=/var/tmp eiscat/remtg_volume
