Some of my Software

Change v. 3.1

I wrote this program to convert Paleomagnetic Data Formats into CIT format for use in the PaleoMag analysis package. I make it available since others have found it useful, but with no guarentee of support. At the present time it converts Ogg and Gillett formats into CIT format. If you have a format you would like to go into or out of drop me a note and we can discuss it. Bug reports and suggestions are welcome. Plans for the next major version call for a rewrite of the user interface. We'll see if that version ever appears. :)

This program runs on a DOS system and comes with the documentation and executable in a zip file. The documentation is available alone.

CHANGE31.ZIP (binary file)
CHANGE31.DOC
Also available by anonymous ftp from minotaur.ess.ucla.edu in the directory /ftp/pub/paleomag.

NGSSRCH

This program searches an index to National Geodetic Survey descriptions of survey markers. The index can be searched by description, lat/lon rectangle, or distance from a given point. The PID number, location, description, survey order, and file location are returned. The marker descriptions are available by anonymous ftp from minotaur.ess.ucla.edu in the directory /ftp/pub/ngs_site_d. The site descriptions are in UNIX compressed format.

This program runs on a DOS system and comes with the index in dbf format in a zip file. The documentation is available alone.

NGSSITES.ZIP (binary file)
NGSSITES.DOC
Also available by anonymous ftp from minotaur.ess.ucla.edu in the directory /ftp/pub/index.

Other Stuff (A Bit Random...)

If I spend time editing hyper-text, does that make me hyper-active?
