<!--

SAXO is a package (~400 routines, ~60 000 code lines) used to easily and quickly visualize and analyze models outputs or data observations. It is based on <ulink url="http://www.ittvis.com/idl/"><trademark>IDL</trademark></ulink> and contains a Graphic User Interface. Developed in collaboration with <ulink url="http://www.lodyc.jussieu.fr/">LOCEAN</ulink> researchers, it allows to explore four dimension data which may be gridded or irregularly spaced. It is particularly adapted to the "Arakawa C grid" discretization used in <ulink url="http://www.lodyc.jussieu.fr/NEMO/">NEMO</ulink>. In addition to graphical procedures, interpolation modules and other things..., it contains a set of programs dedicated to oceanographic diagnostics.
