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)

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