Explanation on how to use zip files

All files are zipped and contain a .zip extension. To use one of these files, click on the file name and download the file to your machine. Use a version of unzip to inflate the file into .dat and .mdf files. The .dat file is an image file and the .mdf file is the metadata file.


To download a copy of unzip for use on a UNIX, DOS or MacIntosh platform go to the ftp site located at ftp.uu.net:/put/archiving/zip.


FTP SITE

These files can also be obtained through the ftp site located at ftp.umbc.edu . Login as anonymous and use your login address as your password. The files are located at pub/gis/rscc/vol4uhi.
