bigMapRef - Similar to bigmap, but allows the user to fix the coordinate frame of the desired bigmap. This is done by specifying the name of a map or bigmap to take the coordinate frame from at the beginning of the bigmap in-file. This is a necessary prerequisite if you wish to compare 1D "traces" of two or more maps.
buildShape.sh - Useful script for building a shape model using "standard" methods. This script runs dumber and densify and needs to be updated before each use to ensure proper naming of the shape files and proper paths. Since the process for building a shape is almost always the same, having a script that runs standard options and can be altered as needed is very beneficial.
compMap - This will take two .MAP files as input and will output a file with the cell by cell difference of height values. CompMap will also output a few other stats such as max and min deviation, and an RMS value for the deviations which is known to be calculated incorrectly in the current version (1.1). This is a "quick and dirty" look at the difference between .MAP files, and does not account for any geometry, only relative deviations between the files.
compMapVec - Same as compMap, including the RMS calculation error in current version (1.3), but compMapVec adds the radius magnitude of the .MAP center point to each height value to make the differences more meaningful. This way maplet center points, which by default have a height value of 0, will no longer cause the saved differences to be skewed.
