Introduction to g3DGMV (3D Graphical
Map Viewer)
-
The g3DGMV
program was designed as a free viewer for Digital Elevation Model (DEM
) and Digital Line Graphs (DLG ) maps. Both of these formats are available
from various locations on the web. These maps are rendered by g3DGMV as
3D images that can be manipulated by the user and view from different angles.
In addition g3DGMV can read maps that have been saved as bitmap (gif ,png,
jpeg ,xpm). Because these formats do not contain elevation information
they are viewable only in 2D mode.
The program contains many utility's that enable the user to add their
own location information to these maps. These tools can be used to mark
a favorite camp site or highlight the best route to some location.
g3DGMV is a Open Source Free Software program, primarily designed for
use with X Window System. It is being developed using the GTK+/Gnome tools.
