intent to package (math and geophysics)
xmap8 has a BSD-style license. I am corresponding a bit with the
author on how to package it. It is still segfaulting on one of the demos
, and I don't know why. More information below.
simath is a symbolic algebra system. Unfortunatley it has a more
restrictive license than I originally thought when packaging. They use
debian for development, however. I gave them a package with most of work
done and they expressed interest in maintaining it. Currently Simens AG
will only allow them to distribute it from their site. I won't do any
more work on this (I answer their questions.)

Package: xmap8
Status: install ok installed
Installed-Size: 1426
Maintainer: John Lapeyre <lapeyre@physics.arizona.edu>
Version: 2.0-1
Depends: libc6, netcdfg3 (>= 3.4-1), xlib6g (>= 3.3-5)
Description: 3d GIS mapping and data manupulation tool
Xmap8 is an all purpose, three-dimensional, GIS mapping
and data exploration tool.
.
The program can read in several different 3D objects:
sources - earthquakes, points, etc.
stations
maps - geologic, gmt
wells - lines, 3D vectors, deviated boreholes with lithology and dip
points - labeled points with color and size information
wireframe objects - 3D structures
2D and 3D raster files
irregularly spaced data fields, which can be gridded and contoured
predetermined cross sections
Some modules are:
Spin Module - Allows users to rotate objects in 3D (postscript available)
Time Module - Allows users to see events plotted in time sequences
