For the tasks of local monitoring using HRPT data, the problem is to maintain a permanent archive of fragmented data relevant to certain regions of interest. The goal is to achieve data organization allowing quick and easy data selection for use, distribution and exchange. For that purpose the specialized data format TDF is proposed basing on standard TIFF specification for storage of HRPT data. The TDF format has been already implemented at SMIS Laboratory for use on personal stations for HRPT data acquisition. A data processing software package, developed for Microsoft Windows 3.1 environment, performs new format operations, including saving and reading data, extracting data from various devices, visualizing and combining them with data from other devices. Also developed were the specialized dynamic libraries (DLL), containing a large set of the procedures for handling files in this format.
