<h1>RSL Internal Routines</h1>
</center>
<hr>RSL internal routines are routines used within the library and not meant for use in RSL application programs. Most of these routines are used only within the source code file that they exist, but a few are used in several different source code files.
<p>The routines are listed by the RSL source code file in which they can be found.
<p>As of version 0.39, the source code for the wsr88d (v1.14), lassen (v1.1), nsig (v1.3), tg (v1.1), and mcgill (v1.1) libraries are included in RSL. This precludes the need to specify a long list of additional libraries during the link step when building application. Also, it simplifies the RSL installation procedure. Still needed are two routines: ppmtogif and ppmtopict, from the pbmplus package.

<h2>column.c</h2>
<dl>
<dt><b>Column *compute_column_products(Column *c);</b>
<dd>Compute the vertical structure values within the Column passed in the parameter list using the data values stored in the Column. Vertical_structure values computed are zmax,hzmax and the eth array (echo tops). The dBz, slant range and height values must exist within the Column before this routine is called. The array for echo top values must be allocated as well.
<p>
<dt><b>Column *get_column_dbz(Volume *v,Column *c,float azim);</b>
<dd>Retrieve the dBz values from the Volume v using the nearest neighbor technique along a straight vertical line. The vertical line is positioned at the azimuth passed in the parameter list and the ground range that should already exist in Column c. The slant range array, height array and memory allocation for the dBz array should already exist as well.
<p>
<dt><b>Column *get_column_range_coord(Volume *v,Column *c, float grange);</b>
<dd>Using the elevation angles from Volume v and the ground range (grange), calculate the slant ranges and heights for all points at the intersections of the Sweeps in Volume v and a straight vertical line at the ground range value grange.
<p>
<dt><b>Column *new_column(int nsteps,float ett_start,float ett_int,int num_ett);</b>
<dd>Allocate space for a Column data structure and arrays within the Column. The value nsteps is the length of the dbz,height and slant range arrays. The lenght of the echo top array, and thus the number of thresholds, is num_ett. The first echo top threshold is ett_start followed by additional thresholds every ett_int.
<p>
<dt><b>void copy_column_range_coord(Column *from,Column *to);</b>
<dd>Copy the range dependent coordinates from Column from to Column to. Range dependent variables in the Column data structure are ground_range, the h array (height) and slant_range array. No memory space is allocated for the Column to. </dl>

<h2>interp.c</h2>
<b>double dir_angle_diff(float x,float y);</b> Returns signed difference between angles x and y. Returns a positive value if y > x and a negative value if y
<b>double from_dB(double db);</b>
Convert a decibel scale value to a linear scale value.
<p>
<b>double get_linear_value_from_sweep(Sweep *sweep,float srange,float azim,float limit);</b>
Return an interpolate value between two rays within a sweep. Interpolation is done along the azimuth coordinate. No interpolation is done in the range direction. The routine expects to work with values that are in a decibel scale (reflectivity data), but it <b>returns values in linear scale</b>.
<p>
<b>double to_dB(double value);</b>
Convert a linear scale value to a decibel scale value.
<p>
<b>float get_dist(float r1,float a1,float e1,float r2,float a2,float e2);</b>
Compute the distence between two points in space given their spherical coordinates. r1 (range),a1 (azimuth angle) and e1 (elevation angle) are the coordinates for the first point. Angles are measured in degrees.
<p>
<b>void get_surrounding_ray(Ray **ccwise,Ray **cwise,Sweep *s,float ray_angle);</b>
Return the two rays within a sweep that surround the angle ray_angle. The ray that is counter-clockwise to ray_angle is returned in ccwise. The ray that is clockwise to ray_angle is returned in cwise. **ccise and **cwise are pointers to ray pointers. For example, if r is of type *Ray, then &r should be passed for either **ccwise or **cwise.
<p>
<b>void get_surrounding_sweep(Sweep **below,Sweep **above, Volume *v,float elev);</b>
Return the sweeps that are above and below the elevation angle elev. **below and **above are pointers to Sweep pointers. if s is of type *Sweep, pass &s as either **above or **below. If the conditionexist where a sweep does not exist for either the above or below case, then a the appropriate pointer is set to NULL.
<p>
<b>void get_xyz_coord(double *x,double *y,double *z,double range,double azim,double elev);</b>
Convert a set of spherical coordinates to a set of cartesian coordinates.
