Description-en: Generic Mapping Tools - Architecture-independent files
GMT is a collection of tools that allow users to manipulate
(x,y) and (x,y,z) data sets (including filtering, trend fitting, gridding,
projecting, etc.) and produce Encapsulated PostScript File (EPS) illustrations
ranging from simple x-y plots through contour maps to artificially illuminated
surfaces and 3-D perspective views in black and white, gray tone, hachure
patterns, and 24-bit color.
.
GMT supports many common map projections plus linear, log, and power scaling,
and comes with support data such as coastlines, rivers, and political
boundaries.
.
This package contains the architecture-independent files for GMT.
