Level 2 Help for VISISX

Either a VICAR 3-dimensional image file, or an ISIS cube file,
depending the program mode.

Either a VICAR 3-dimensional image file, or an ISIS cube file,
depending the program mode.

if MODE= TOVICAR, the input is an ISIS cube file and the output is a 
 VICAR 3-dimensional image.

if MODE= TOISIS, the output is an ISIS cube file and the input is a 
 VICAR 3-dimensional image.

Vicar file containing the ISIS Sideplanes.
(See program Help for more details.)

Vicar file containing the ISIS Backplanes.
(See program Help for more details.)

Vicar file containing the ISIS Bottomplanes.
(See program Help for more details.)

This is the name of an ascii text file containing ISIS history labels.

In TOVICAR mode, any ISIS history labels found in the input ISIS cube will 
be written to this file, if specified.  

In TOISIS mode, if this parameter is specified, then the history labels
in this file will be read in and stored in the output cube history, 
immediately preceding the VISISX history of the job itself.

In TOVICAR mode (only), this allows specification of the original Host
on which the file was created.  Normally, this is determined by checking
the CORE_ITEM_TYPE label item in TOVICAR mode or the HOST label keyword in
TOISIS mode, but this parameter allows user input if that item is missing 
or non-standard.

Name of the task containing the label items defining the cube attributes.
Normally the default (VIMSCMM) will be valid.  However, if the cube was
was extracted from an ISIS "Qube" using a version of VISISX in inverse mode, 
then TASKNAME=VISISX is required.  This keyword is used in TOISIS mode only.

The list of map projections supported by ISIS is much smaller than that of
VICAR, so it can happen that an ISIS cube generated by VISISX will fail to
work under some ISIS programs.  (CV is generally immune to such problems,
but a program like MAGCUBE reads the map labels, even if being used for
cosmetic purposes only.)  In order to "fool" such programs into working,
this parameter can be specified, which replaces the true MAP_PROJECTION
keyword with MERCATOR (and inserts a comment to this effect in the label).

(A list of supported ISIS projections can be obtained by doing TUTOR
MAPPARS under ISIS TAE.)
