This page describes how to display and overlay any combination of available data fields in MountainZebra.
In order for a particular field to be displayed, the icon
corresponding to the directory where it is located must be enabled
(see General Setup). Then, to specify
the correct field, click on the large icon with the middle mouse
button. This pulls up a menu containing available fields at the
top. The field currently selected for display is designated with an
asterisk.
To specify a different field, simply use the left mouse button to
select the name of the field from the menu.
Shortcuts are available for toggling between commonly used
fields. These are done by simply moving the mouse cursor inside the
window where the field is being displayed and typing a shortcut
key. Below are some important shortcut keys for use in MountainZebra:
As discussed in General Setup, each
large icon at the bottom of the main windows (except the "Z" icon) represents a data directory where data files are stored. These
data files are usually in NetCDF format,
and may contain any number of fields at a given time. For example, a
single radar data file may contain reflectivity, radial velocity and spectral
width fields from one radar volume scan.
