1347184WesselThis EAR Geoinformatics Program (NSF 11-581) grant supports a three year project to develop enhancements to the Generic Mapping Tools (GMT) software package for analyzing and displaying geoscience data. GMT now includes more than 80 modules that share a common set of command options, file structures, and documentation. It is used widely to produce publication-quality graphic presentations. GMT now has more than 25,000 individual registered users. This award will support expansion on GMT capabilities to include: 1) code for plotting, velocity vectors from GPS measurements and their uncertainties as arrows with confidence ellipses, earthquake focal mechanisms as hemispherical projections on cartographically correct maps, ternary diagrams and geologic symbols; 2) an Application Programming Interface (API) between GMT and Python to support computational workflow scripting; and 3) tools for Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) processing and analysis for spatially resolved imaging of Earth surface deformation associated with earthquake-generating faults, active volcanoes, moving glaciers, and unstable landslides, as well as the engineered withdrawal and/or injection of petroleum, natural gas, geothermal fluids, and carbon dioxide. The developed GMT source code will be distributed, free of charge, under the GNU Lesser General Public License. ***

1347184 Wessel这是美国国家科学基金会地理信息学计划（NSF 11-581）的拨款，用于支持一个为期三年的项目，以开发通用制图工具（GMT）软件包的增强功能，用于分析和显示地球科学数据。GMT现在包括80多个模块，这些模块共享一组通用的命令选项、文件结构和文档。它被广泛用于制作出版质量的图形演示。 GMT现在有25，000多个注册用户。 该合同将支持GMT能力的扩展，包括：1）绘图代码，GPS测量的速度矢量及其不确定性，如带有置信椭圆的箭头，地震震源机制，如在制图正确的地图上的半球投影，三元图和地质符号; 2）GMT和Python之间的应用程序编程接口（API），以支持计算脚本工作流程;以及3）用于干涉合成孔径雷达（干涉合成孔径雷达）处理和分析的工具，用于与地震生成断层、活火山、移动冰川和不稳定滑坡以及石油、天然气、地热流体和二氧化碳的工程开采和/或注入相关的地球表面变形的空间分辨成像。 开发的GMT源代码将在GNU宽松通用公共许可证下免费分发。***
