CartoPics

CartoPics is a simple script to generate Digital Elevation Model picture.

Raster of a Brest's harbour area

Getting Started

These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes.

Prerequisites

Let's get started ! Clone the repository using git

git clone https://github.com/Teusner/CartoPics

Compiling

You are now able to compile the project

cd CartoPics/src
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make

create_raster is now generate in Cartopics/src/build

First example

To generate a Digital Elevation Model, you should have a file of the points you measured, as you can see on the following example

# latitude    longitude  elevation
48.29762887 -004.41737340 14.334
48.29762971 -004.41735997 14.379
48.29763698 -004.41738809 14.452
...

And then, run CartoPics with the name of your file in parameter and the number of pixel along the x-axis

./cartopics my_file.txt 1000

You can find your output image in the same directory with the name my_file_map.ppm

Running the tests

To run the test, you need first to compile the project. Then you are able to run ctest in the build path.

cd build
ctest

You can too run verbose tests to have more informations about the tests.

ctest --verbose
