How SEAScope works

The first time SEAScope is started, the application creates a configuration file named config.ini that contains paths for the colormaps, data, plugins,… directories.

The data directory will have one subdirectory for each collection: it contains one or several granules. A configuration file is provided to define how SEAScope should render these granules. The [subdirectory].ini file has the same name as the subdirectory it relates to. Old configuration file could be provided in the subdirectory itself and are named config.ini. At startup SEAScope will also create an index for all the compatible granules found in the data directory (if it exists): this index will contain the full path for each file that SEAScope is able to load.
