Most images in MFF format are in the complex domain (each pixel consists of a real and an imaginary component). When read, each complex image is represented by three image channels. One contains the real component, the second contains the imaginary component, and the third contains the magnitude of the first two components.
MFF files consist of a header file (e.g., AZC.hdr) which contains information such as the image size and a separate file for each image layer. To select an MFF file use the name of the header file (e.g., AZC.hdr) not the name of one of the image files (e.g., AZC.X00).
The header file must have ``IMAGE_FILE_FORMAT = MFF'' as the first line. This may not exist in some older Atlantis MFF files, and can be added by hand.
No georeferencing or other auxiliary data is imported with MFF files. Currently there is no support for exporting in MFF format, nor can an MFF file be linked to using the LINK PACE program.
