1) * iee files: the data is in binary format (**iee files) and can be represented using the Grid Analysis and Visualization System (GrADS). GrADS is copyrighted under the terms of the GNU Public License and is freely distributed.

2) *.ctl files: the Grads control files (data descriptor files). They contain in ASCII format the mapping of the binary data (*iee) for each of the model grids. They can be edited with Wordpad, Kwrite ... and they have to be changed to point to the directory that contains the binary files (**iee).These files also contain a description of all variables and units
