The FreeGIS project archives the last known version of wxapt and xwxapt, until somebody a new distribution point is found. We don't know much about the workings of the package. Try to contact the author or the freegis-list for questions. Former distribution point: http://www.qsl.net/5b4az/ Last known author contact: Neoklis Kyriazis 5B4AZ neoklis@users.sourceforge.net 5b4az@qsl.net Descriptions: wxapt: Weather satellite APT image decoder. =========================================== wxapt is a non-interactive command line tool for decoding weather images transmitted by satellites using the APT format. Currently wxapt can decode images in the American NOAA and Russian Meteor satellite APT formats only. Other formats may be supported in future versions if I can receive signals from the relevant satellites and find enough information on the format used as well. Images are decoded either in real time direct from the receiver o/p through the computer's sound card, or from a file of sound samples recorded by wxapt. Please see the wxapt.html hypertext documentation for details of compilation and operation.

Currently xwxapt can decode images in the American NOAA and Russian Meteor satellite APT formats only. Other formats may be supported in future versions if I can receive signals from the relevant satellites and find enough information on the format used as well. Images are decoded either in real time direct from the receiver o/p through the computer's sound card, or from a file of sound samples recorded by wxapt.
