GMT is an open source collection of ~60 tools for manipulating geographic and

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-
