The OpenLR Binary Data Viewer can be used to generate a human-readable version of an OpenLR binary location reference. The output of the encoding process is a compact binary stream containing data describing a location reference. This data is machine- readable and hard to understand for humans. The binary stream can also be encoded in a Base64-format but even this is only machine-readable content.
But both formats can be translated into a human-readable version using this Binary Data Viewer tool. The output of the tool is configurable using the Velocity engine (http://velocity.apache.org/). A template can be added to the list of parameters in order to customize the generated output. If no template is added then a standard template will be used.
The usage page shows how to use the Binary Data Viewer, the standard output template is outlined in the template section and the available output options are summarized in the output section.
