You'll need to process it from the textual form it's in now to the
binary format used by scat.
It's also probably not quite the same data set scat used since the
provenance is different,
but it's likely to be fine.

Someone at the labs may be able to root around in my directory there
and find the
program that does the conversion.  Or maybe I'll make it a project for myself.

It's very easy to figure out the format; the function loadngc() in
scat.c is trivial.
