Help for TIMSPIX3

     TIMSPIX3 is a procedure designed to process TIMS picture products
in a throughput manner.  There are three possible outputs from 
this procedure: a calibrated, band-interleaved (BIL), halfword-format
image file, a PostScript file, and a TIFF file.

     The user must submit the name (NAME parameter) that is the root of the
PIX and AUX files.  That is, if the starting datasets are MONO3.pix and 
MONO3.aux, the NAME parameter must be "MONO3". If the user

     The user has the option of calibrating the TIMS imagery or performing
the D-stretch processing on the raw data.  The default is to perform the
calibration: this produces the BIL .IRAD file for storage in the TIMSBSQ
tape library. The calibrated, halfword data is fit to byte format prior
to the D-stretch; the user may specify the region of the image used to 
calculate the statistics for the stretch. The default is to use the 
entire image.

     The user may specify up to 10 subareas for use as training sites for 
the D-stretch procedure. The default is to use the enitre image as the 
source for the statistics.
