Software / Old Software / About Me / Resume
This software is mostly of historical interest since it requires a PPC Mac or Rosetta to run so it doesn't work under Lion. Unfortunately MapProjector and ColorBarTender were written in Pascal using Metrowerks CodeWarrior so they cannot easily be updated. However I've left this page up in case the software is still useful to someone.

MapProjector v. 4.0.4
Copyright 1995-2005
About:
MapProjector 4.0.4 is a graphics program that can be used to view, alter and process images of global maps. Some of the primary functions of the program include the ability to recenter images, extract specific regions, and convert images to different projections (mollweide, orthographic, stereographic). Functions are also available to annotate images with features such as scalebars, latitude and longitude grid lines and continental overlays. Global maps are assumed to be rectilinear when they are first read in and users are asked to assign the latitude and longitude coordinates of their map when opening the image for the first time. The map coordinates are subsequently embedded within the image file after they are saved in MapProjector’s native format.
The new 4.0.4 version uses much less processor time under MacOS X and does font smoothing under MacOS X 10.1.5 & 10.2.
4.0.5 is not a public release since it has some hacks specific to other software. 4.0.4 and 4.0.5 work under MacOS X 10.3.
See the online manual for more information about MapProjector.
