FLEXPART output is usually in a very compact binary format that needs special reading routines to unpack it. In this page you will find the tools developers and users have generated to read the FLEXPART output, process it and plot it. 

 - `FORTRAN` [download:17 subroutines to read FLEXPART 8.x/9.x] developed by A. Stohl.

 - `python-matplotlib`  processing and plotting tools [https://bitbucket.org/jfburkhart/pflexible pflexible] developed by J. Burkhart.

 - `Matlab `tools to read FLEXPART (S. Eckhardt, H. Sodemann) - please contact Sabine Eckhardt

 - `IDL` tools to read FLEXPART - please contact Pasquale Sellitto, LMD-ENS: psellitto - at - lmd.ens.fr

 - `R` tools - please contact Rona Thompson

 - `FORTRAN` [http://www.wau.boku.ac.at/2393.html?&L=1 code to convert FLEXPART6.2 output to CTBTO SRM format] (by Petra Seibert)

Some of the limited-area versions already provide the output in netCDF format. netCDF output or conversion into it is foreseen for regular FLEXPART in future (ticket:40).
