<h2>DESCRIPTION</h2>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em"><b>gmtdigitize</b>
digitizes points from a digitizer via a serial line
connection and computes map coordinates using the specified
map projection. The program is interactive and will take you
through the setup procedure and how you will digitize
points. The program will determine the actual map scale as
well as rotation of the paper that is taped to the digitizer
table. By default the output will go to stdout.</p>

can be overridden on the command line by appending <b>c</b>,
<b>i</b>, or <b>m</b> to the scale/width value. When central
meridian is optional, default is center of longitude range
on <b>−R</b> option. Default standard parallel is the
equator. For map height, max dimension, or min dimension,
append <b>h</b>, <b>+</b>, or <b>-</b> to the width,
respectively.</p> </td>

<a name="SYSTEM SETUP"></a>
<h2>SYSTEM SETUP</h2>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">This applies to
the Calcomp DrawingBoard III hooked up to a RedHat Linux
workstation. We use /dev/ttyS0 as the serial port and change
permissions so that it is world read/write-able. Then, stty
-F /dev/ttyS0 evenp will set the terminal settings, which
can be checked with stty -F /dev/ttyS0 -a. Setup of
digitizer: We use the CalComp 2000 ASCII (Save 3) setup,
which has: <br>
Mode: Point <br>
Baud Rate: 9600 <br>
Data Bits: 7 <br>
Parity: Even <br>
Data Rate: 125 pps <br>
Resolution: 200 lpi <br>
Output Format: Format 0 <br>
Emulation: CalComp 2000 ASCII <br>
(A)We need to make a slight modification to the Preset No 3
settings: (1) 2450 LPI instead of 200, and (2) None instead
of yes for added CR. These modifications can be changed and
saved to Preset 3 on the digitizer but a power outage may
reset in back to the factory defaults, necessitating a
manual reset of those two settings. (B) Setup tty port. stty
-F /dev/ttyS0 evenp (C) Run gmtdigitize. Map scale does not
matter; it is computed from the region and plot size.</p>
