MAKE_TILES

Description

This program builds <sequence>.IN files that are used to make Z-maps with bigmapL. Z-maps are essentially a combination of bigmaps that, together, fully wrap around the shape model.

MAKE_TILES creates a <sequence>.IN file for every row in the input file MAPLIST.TXT.

• Be sure to include enough bigmap names to fully wrap around the surface (calculate with q-size and surface area of shape).

Required Files

• MAPLIST.TXT - List of bigmap names you want to use.

• ZINPTS - The directory the *.IN files will be put into.

Output Files

• <sequence>.IN files - One for each row in MAPLIST.TXT

Using MAKE_TILES

The standard input includes these elements:

• resolution (pix/km)
• Q size
• seed
• maximum maplet resolution that can be included in the bigmap being created

Here is a sample input:

0.02500   500   1.23400   5.00000

Here is a sample MAPLIST.TXT file:

ZN0000
ZN0001
ZN0002
ZN0003
ZN0004
ZN0005
ZN0006
ZN0007

ZN0009
ZN0010
ZN0011
