Release     : 1.fc10

Summary     : Generic Mapping Tools
Description :
GMT is an open source collection of ~60 tools for manipulating geographic and
Cartesian data sets (including filtering, trend fitting, gridding, projecting,
etc.) and producing Encapsulated PostScript File (EPS) illustrations ranging
from simple x-y plots via contour maps to artificially illuminated surfaces
and 3-D perspective views.  GMT supports ~30 map projections and transforma-
tions and comes with support data such as coastlines, rivers, and political
boundaries.

GMT is developed and maintained by Paul Wessel and Walter H. F.  Smith with
help from a global set of volunteers, and is supported by the National
Science Foundation.

Update Information:

Update to 4.4.0.    Notable changes:  * New program (greenspline) which offers
interpolation and gridding in 1-3 dimensions using Green's functions of various
splines.  * The misc supplement has a new tool (gmtdp) which offers line-
reduction using the Douglas-Peucker algorithm we used for the various shoreline
resolutions.  * The mex supplement has a new Octave function (imgread) to
directly read Sandwell/Smith *.img files.  * The x2sys supplement has three new
programs: x2sys_list can extract a subset of crossovers from the list produced
by x2sys_cross, x2sys_report reports statistics of crossovers, whereas
x2sys_solve will determine systematic trends from a set of crossover errors.
These programs are intended to replace the old x_system tools x_list, x_report
and x_solve_dc_drift.  * ps2raster can now be used to create geotiff images if
gdal is installed on your system.    Full details available here:
