As a BEAM plugin, the ICOL+ processor needs the following software to be installed in advance:
The BEAM software can be obtained from the BEAM download page (www.brockmann-consult.de/beam).
The ICOL+ software delivery consists of three jar files: the ICOL main module, an updated BEAM 4.8 GPF module containing ICOL relevant bug fixes, and the OpenCL modules, which provide additional Java classes which are optionally used by ICOL+ for accelerating purpose in case that a proper GPU is installed in the computer:
The files beam-meris-icol-2.5.jar and beam-gpf-4.8.1-SNAPSHOT.jar need to be copied into the 'modules' folder of the BEAM installation (Figure 2.1). The opencl_jars.zip files needs to be unpacked into the 'lib' folder of the BEAM installation. Note that existing versions of BEAM and ICOL jar files (e.g. ICOL1.0) need to be replaced/overwritten to avoid version conflicts of Java classes. I.e., this is true for the file beam-gpf-4.8.jar.
