This page describes cribs for the Tsyganenko model IDL_GEOPACK plugin for SPEDAS. See crib sheets for an index of all our crib sheet pages. These cribs are located in external/IDL_GEOPACK/examples/

IDL Geopack DLM: To use the Tsyganenko Model extensions to the THEMIS software, you need to download (http://themis.ssl.berkeley.edu/idl_geopack_75.zip) and install the interface between Tsyganenko's Fortran code and IDL. This interface was developed and provided for THEMIS as a courtesy by Dr. Haje Korth of JHU APL (http://ampere.jhuapl.edu/code/idl_geopack.html). Installation instructions can be found here: http://themis.ssl.berkeley.edu/README.txt
