Ross,
I agree with Chris that you are doing a great job on this. Thank you for
all the hard work in setting this up. Having a standard geospatial
interface from the FileManager to SIS will prove extremely helpful to
several JPL/NASA Earth Science Missions in the future.
Just wanted to say thanks!
Cameron
