I have seen a recent post else where about a freeware Package called
Plot Plus. The web page
http://www.halcyon.com/www2/dwd/
has the following blurb
Plot Plus Features
Multiple output devices supported:
X-windows
PostScript
GIF
MPEG animation files
hdf animation files
Powerful and flexible scripting language
Multiple input formats supported
ASCII
binary
netCDF
Integrated with nccalc for netCDF reading, writing, and
calculations
MPEG animations generated using a modified version of the
Berkeley MPEG-1 Software
Encoder
Data display options include:
x-y line plot
contour plot
color area fill
Map projections supported:
Mercator
Polar Stereographic
Peters Projection
Linear, Log, and Time axes
Over 30 built in fonts
Colored labels, plot lines, and contour lines
The web page has links to sites that have used the graphics
Links to Web sites that use Plot Plus
NOAA/PMEL EPIC analysis programs:
CTD data
Time Series data
Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP) data
NOAA/PMEL TAO program
TAO real-time data display
TAO Display Software System
Other Web Sites using EPIC/PPLUS
JAMSTEC Ocean model simulation home page
PPLUS at Seoul National University
Seem like a decent solution to Web implementations where multiple
licences would be needed.
