User in Research
Advanced user of IDLMe and my team use IDL in various ways. From algorithm development to data analysis of satellite products. We primarily use IDL to display satellite products and conduct analysis such as monthly means, annual means, matchups with other correlative observations, time series analysis, and web-based dissemination of our satellite products at NOAA.
It is slow and sometimes unforgiving. IDL guides are of not much use. We rely on other published documents online (Coyote) for help with certain aspects of code development.
Benefits are that IDL is one of the best software tool out there to display satellite data using different map projections
