GMT to STL Conversion: FAQ
What are GMT files?
The GMT format is associated with Generic Mapping Tools, an open software package consisting of tools for handling geographical and Cartesian data, designed for use via command-line. The most recent version of the GMT format was optimized to support more geometry types and attributes. Such files can be used for producing complex PostScript illustrations of detailed maps, with a wide range of applications in geospatial science, as well as biology, physics, medical research etc.
What are STL files?
STL is the proprietary format for a computer-aided design (CAD) program developed by 3D Systems. STL is an acronym for Stereolitography, which is a type of technology used for creating prototypes or patterns through 3D printing. An STL file contains a surface representation of such a model, without detailed specifications of aspects such as colours. STL files can only be opened with a limited number of programs.
