LAS is a pretty complete image processing package, designed for working
with satellite imagery. It is based on TAE (Transportable Applications
Executive), and has device drivers for several frame buffers and image
processors. They are adding support for color workstations. I don't know the
official status of it, but they offered us a copy since we are NASA 
contractors. We even got a tape and big manual, but I have not had time to 
look at it much. I have been in contact with one person about it at GSFC,
but I don't know if I should publish the address and subject them to a
deluge.
