XVD Image Display Program

The XVD [X-Windows VICAR (video image communication and retrieval) Display] computer program offers an interactive display of VICAR and PDS (planetary data systems) images. It is designed to efficiently display multiple-GB images and runs on Solaris, Linux, or Mac OS X systems using X-Windows. XVD is the de facto standard image display program used within the Multimission Image Processing Lab (MIPL) to process images from missions such as Voyager, Galileo, Cassini, MER, and Phoenix, among others.
