Vector Globe Projection is a tool for engineers, scientists, or anyone that deals with series of R3 (3-dimensional) vectors. (A vector of vectors so to speak.) The usual case is a set of these n x 3 matrices with one representing time and the others representing other signals like momentum or velocity, changing with time. It could also represent a partial attitude, by the vector representing e.g. the Y-axis of the body with respect to an inertia frame.

It compresses points either linearly or logarithmically, displays the data in color (HSB) or gray scale, zooms, and does period repeats of the image. It also outputs in postscript (which post.c might be handy for a slew of programs...)

JASPER 1.500.4 (24-FEBRUARY-2002)

JPEG-2000 Codec - Authors: Michael Adams (and others) University Of British Columbia, Image Power Inc.
License: Non commercial use only (see LICENSE file)
VAX: Not tested - Alpha: DEC C 6.2, VMS 7.2-1

   
   The JasPer software is a collection of utilities for image coding.
   Arguably, the most useful utility in the JasPer suite is the
   transcoder program. This particular program accepts image data in one
   format and generates image data in another format. The JasPer software
   can handle image data in a number of popular formats, including JPEG
   2000, PNM/PGM/PPM, Windows BMP, and Sun Rasterfile. Since the
   JPEG-2000 format is supported, the transcoder program can be used as a
   JPEG-2000 encoder or decoder.

VAX: DEC C 5.2, VMS 6.2 - Alpha : DEC C 5.2, VMS 6.2

   ImageMagick TM, version 5.1.0, is a robust collection of tools
   and libraries to read, write, and manipulate an image in any of
   the more popular image formats including GIF, JPEG, PNG, PDF,
   and Photo CD. With ImageMagick you can create GIFs dynamically
   making it suitable for Web applications.

   You can also resize, rotate, sharpen, color reduce, or add
   special effects to an image and save your completed work in the
   same or differing image format.

   You can access ImageMagick functions directly from the command
   line using the ImageMagick tools convert, mogrify, montage,
   combine, or identify. Use the display program to interactively
   manipulate your images or animate an image sequence from a
   graphical panel. Finally you have access to the various image
   processing methods directly from your favorite application
   development environment: Perl, C++, C, or Java. These programs
   and much more are explained by following the links from this
   page or read the ImageMagick Users Guide.
