Make sure you are using the original file name of the HDF files, because MCTK needs the standard MODIS product ID and other information to read the HDF. This tool is based on ENVI and you can conveniently do a batch reading by running the functions of this tool in IDL. See the user's guide of MCTK for details.

Hi,

Thank you for your help. I have already used idl to read this MODIS data and to plot maps. I know all the specification about this data and how to convert radiances. The second step as I have said, I should plot radiances vs wavelengths for one pixel in the infrared and I cannot find a method or command to extract pixel value according to latitude and longitude.

Thank you
