+# WRITE RSL/TRMM RADAR TO HDF5
+
+(C) Copyleft Sistema Meteorológico Simepar (SIMEPAR) See LICENSE.txt for more details
+
+In this folder you will find a code in C to write an [RSL/TRMM](http://trmm-fc.gsfc.nasa.gov/trmm_gv/software/rsl/) radar extruture into an [HDF5](http://www.hdfgroup.org/HDF5) file following the GAMIC convention
+
+## DEPENDENCIES
+
+In order to compile this programs you will need already installed:
+
+* an C compiler, preferentially GCC 
+* RSL/TRMM version 1.41 or later:  [http://trmm-fc.gsfc.nasa.gov/trmm_gv/software/rsl/](http://trmm-fc.gsfc.nasa.gov/trmm_gv/software/rsl/)
+* HDF5 C library version 1.8 or later: [http://www.hdfgroup.org/HDF5/release/obtain5.html#obtain](http://www.hdfgroup.org/HDF5/release/obtain5.html#obtain)
+
+## BUILDING
+
+
+Download the files in this folder to your machine.
+
+You may use this code direct in our aplication or create a dynamic library as follow:
+
+First of all some times RSL doesn't install itself in standard locations, if this is your case update the first line of MAKEFILE to the instalation place of RSL
+
+In a terminal at the downloaded folder execute **make**. This will create dynamic library *librsl_to_hdf5gamic.so*, move this file to the standard library location of your system as well as the file *rsl_to_hdf5gamic.h*, or link direct to it when compiling your aplication.
+
+## USING
+
+When writing your aplication include the header
+
+    #include <rsl_to_hdf5gamic.h>
+
+and call 
+
+    radar_to_hdf5gamic(Radar* radar, char *outfile)
+
+to write an HDF5 file
+
+When compiling your aplication:
+
+- If you have the dynamic library, link to it with the flag *-lrsl_to_hdf5gamic*. You must also link RSL and HDF5 with *-lrsl -lhdf5*
+
+- If want to use the pure code add the file *rsl_to_hdf5gamic.c* in your compilation line and link to RSL and HDF5  with  *-lrsl -lhdf5*
