Examples for using GMT's C_API

What's GMT?

The Generic Mapping Tools (GMT) are widely used across the Earth, Ocean, and Planetary sciences and beyond. A diverse community uses GMT to process data, generate publication-quality illustrations, automate workflows, and make animations. Scientific journals, posters at meetings, Wikipedia pages, and many more publications display illustrations made by GMT. And the best part: it is free, open source software licensed under the LGPL.

For those who wants to know more, please go to GMT_site.

What are these examples?

griding: call a GMT module to griding a table data.
plot_grid: read a grid file and call GMT modules to plot the grid to an image file.
plot_memory: create a GMT grid container and call GMT modules to plot the grid to an image file.

How to run the examples?

Compile the executables and then run sequentially.

mkdir build && cd build && cmake .. && make
