Import IDL Variables

Use Import IDL Variables to import IDL variables into ENVI.

  1. From the Toolbox, select Raster Management > Import IDL Variables. The Import IDL Variables dialog appears with a list of all defined variables.
  2. Select the desired variable names to import by clicking in the check box next to the name.
  3. To save a copy of the data in IDL, use the arrow toggle button to select Yes.

    Note: If you select No, the data is imported into ENVI and deleted from IDL.

  4. Click OK to import the selected variables.

All one-dimensional variables are placed in a plot window; the 2D and 3D variables appear in the Available Band List as memory items.
