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.

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

• max maplet resolution that can be included in the bigmap being created(JRW - machine bigmap?) not sure what the confusion is above but it's got me, too ???

Here is a sample input:

• should we show the sample and then explain what the elements are? Is this interactive (prompt for each element) or do you enter at command line?

0.02500   500   1.23400   5.00000

Here is a sample MAPLIST.TXT file:

ZN0000
ZN0001
ZN0002
ZN0003
ZN0004
ZN0005
ZN0006
ZN0007
ZN0008
ZN0009
ZN0010
ZN0011

The following is a sample sequence.in file:
