Following an updated azgcorr, Johanna is now working on using external BIL files (note previous support ticket #56 for background).

We have been trying to run azgcorr with a BIL file as we have now  
atmospherically corrected the CASI data (through FLAASH in ENVI, with good
results), but the command is not running
as expected. In the PDF documentation it states that we should use the  
-Bi command to specify the location of the BIL file and the -B command  
to specify its parameters. The -B command is stated as having 5
parameters:

option:
  -B  b t s o f

  BIL or BSEQ file content details
b = total bands on file
t = number type on file, 0= uint16, 1= float32
s = scale
o = offset to convert B file values for geom correction and saving as
uint16, v = p * s + o
f = &#64257;ll value for bad pixels; good pixels are < f

  if f = 0 the default values of 0 and 0xffff (uint16) or 10e30
(&#64258;oat32) are assumed
requirement:
  MUST be used if -Bi or -Bs are useddefaults:
  b NONE; s = 1.0; o = 0.0

When we execute the following commands (it works correctly without the  
-B and -Bi) we get the following error message:

./bin/azgcorr -v -mUK99 ./misc/osgb02.cgrf -e ../DEM/

** parameter: ./lev2/c219012a_refl  does not start with:  -
**     and may be incorrect or out of sequence


After 'playing' with the commands experimenting with the order,
although stated in the documentation it is unimportant, we found that  
when an extra parameter (6 rather than 5) is added to the -B command   is
attempts to run but now fails with the following error.

./bin/azgcorr -v -mUK99 ./misc/osgb02.cgrf -e ../DEM/

Could you confirm the commands and their parameters or is there
something we are obviously doing wrong?

Sent an apology for the outdated manual (opened #103 for this issue) and explained azgcorr's -B option from the -help.
