Subject: RE: GISList: GMT data and GSHHS data
Date:  09/24/2002 04:34:15 AM
From:  Henni, Paul HO



Bonjour Stephanie,

I suggest you have a look at the GMT web site and email list. There is a
list archive and there have been recent discussions about the GSHHS data,
which was made by the GMT creators.

See http://gmt.soest.hawaii.edu/gmt.html or
http://www.geophysics.rice.edu/department/students/ben/gmt.html

Regards,
