grdrotater problemI am new to using GMT and I was told that I could preform plate tectonic reconstructions of gridded data using the grdrotater function. I have tried using this and the program appears to rotate my map (using a clipping polygon) into the correct position. my problem is that the data inside the rotated grid is being destroyed to give a series of horizontal lines. (see attached .ps file). is this a problem with the input data or something that i am doing.
the script I am using is: grdrotater ct.grd -T-34.96/53.06/49.45 -V -Fsa_cob.xy -Gctrot.grd >rotct_path.xy grdimage ct.grd -R-90/40/-65/60 -Cct.cpt -JM6i -B20g10 -P -K -Q > Plotrot.ps grdimage ctrot.grd -R-90/40/-65/60 -Cct.cpt -JM6i -Q -B20g10 -P -K -O >> Plotrot.ps pscoast -R-90/40/-65/60 -JM6i -P -O -K -Di -W >> plotrot.ps any info is greatly appreciated cheers Andy Plotrot.ps |

Minimum region of interest?Hmmm
Is there any neat way to find the minimum region of interest (i.e. to append to the -R option) that includes a known data set for a known projection? Or do I need to fiddle with this myself for every new data set I wish to plot. If not existing yet maybe this is something that can be added to the wishlist, i.e. given a data set data.xy, something along the lines: >>> region data.xy -Jparameters xmin xmax ymin ymax At least I assume that such a command could be written since the -N option exist (and -S option for mapproject) , which tricks me to believe that GMT somehow can decide if a point falls outside the map-boundaries for a given projection, hence given this it should be possible to find the minimum map-boundaries that encloses the data-set. Has anyone looked into this, if not and there will be no attempts, any pointers on where to start looking if I decide to try it myself would be highly appreciated as I'm not fluent in C (yet ;-) regards Peter (and yes I know that such a little tool is not really along the lines of GMT's philosophy, but I think it would be very useful, especially for newbies) -- ******************************************************************************** Peter Schmidt Tel: +46-18-4717104 PhD Student Mobile: +46-73-3190975 Dept. of Earth Sciences e-mail: peter.schmidt@...

Re: Minimum region of interest?Have you looked at minmax and its options?

Re: Minimum region of interest?Yes, that will certainly work for Cartesian coordinates (Jx), not really
sure if this is the case for geographic projections. Hmmm , maybe I should try it to see what happens, I'll give it a go... BTW. thanks for the ninja fast reply, must have been less then 5 secs, new record :-D regP Walter H. F.

Re: Minimum region of interest?If you want something in projected coordinates, it may work to choose
a -R that is sure to be large enough, use mapproject with that -R and your desired -J, run the result through minmax, and then put the output of that through the inverse projection. In this way you can try to narrow down to a better choice of -R. w On Nov 10, 2009, at 12:43 PM, Peter Schmidt wrote: > Yes, that will certainly work for Cartesian coordinates (Jx), not > really > sure if this is the case for geographic projections.

Re: Minimum region of interest?In a similar vein, a tool that gives just the R values for where two
(or more) grids intersect would be useful. On Tue, Nov 10, 2009 at 12:45 PM, Walter H. F.
