Introduce yourself 👋🏾

Dear All,
I am PhD candidate and working in seismology field at Observatorio San Calixto in Bolivia (Plurinational State of), the only one institution with 108 years old!

ObservatorioSanCalixto

And yes, the Central Andes has seismic activity!!!, loving the Moment Tensor Inversion and plotting the solutions in GMT or PyGMT.

Stay healthy

Hi everybody, I am Germán from Spain. I work at IHCantabria as an R&D Engineer. Currently, I am working in modelling oil and chemical spills at the coastal and ocean areas and we are migrating our codes from MatLab to Python, this is reason because I found pyGMT, which seems a very useful and updated library to plot our results and also (I hope) to get access to some global topo/bathy/coast providers.

See you around, and have all a nice day!

Hi, nice to meet you, my friends! I am Yuqiang Li in China University of Geosciences, Wuhan, China. Now I am a doctoral student for PhD. I research on focal mechanism in Seismology before and simulation in Geomorphology now. I am so interested in math and MPI & Fortran programming. Also, I always prefer to show my research results using bash and GMT4&6 on Linux system. I will be sooooooo happy to communicate with you. Thank you, GMT team!

Hello all,
I’m Andrew and brand new to GMT. Looking forward to using it for analyzing and plotting oceanographic and bathymetric data for the Canadian Arctic. Cheers. Andrew

Greetings! My job has me writing code that uses GMT or libGMT to generate plots from our data feeds, among many other things. Self-taught on the GMT side, curmudgeonly old programmer who has been writing C/C++ code and Perl scripts for what feels like centuries, with occasional forays into Python, Fortran, and Java.

Hi every one, i am a student at master degree in France and I want to perform my knowledge about geodesy and gravity. I discovered few days ago GMT, and it is a very powerful tool, but it is very hard to understand how it works for me, but I do intend to learn. Thanks for all people who take time to help noobs like me.

Hi!! I’m Simon Orrego, geologist from Chile. I have been working with GMT for 3 years app, since my undergraduate days working on my thesis on geodetic issues and using InSAR observations with GMTSAR. Now, I am involved in the InSAR industry and awaiting the results of graduate applications :crossed_fingers: . Thank you for keeping up the effort in pushing GMT, It’s an amazing package that can do almost anything. Thx.

Hello there !
If you don’t mind, I’m curious : how are you using gmt in cybersecurity?

Maybe plotting the crackers whereabouts on a world map after a steamy session with traceroute!

I’m very curious as well; very cool!

Hello again, all! quick reintroduction that I now go by Max Jones (they/them), and can be tagged on the forum or github as @maxrjones.

Hello eveyrone,
My name is Redouane, a Seismologist, using gmt (mostly the 4.5… version) since 2013.
Hope we can learn from each other.
Have a nice day

Hello everyone,
I’m Yvonne. I started using GMT during my Bachelor thesis in 2017 and continued writing classic mode GMT Shell-scripts during my Master. Since 2021 I am a PhD student working on shear wave splitting and pleased to use PyGMT. It’s great to have all the Python functionality and the PyData ecosystem together with GMT :slightly_smiling_face: !

I am Jean Luc of University of Lubumbashi DRCongo. I am interested with the GMT flexure in the scope of PHD. My difficulty is to generate topo.txt file. How must be the header and number of columns in the file? Does the file be an XYZ?

If you plan to do 2-D flexure in map view then it is grdflexure and it reads GMT grids, not ascii tables. if you have data in ascii form then you need to either convert it via xyz2grd (if already gridded but in ascii form) or you need to look at gridding in GMT in general (blockmean+surface, or near neighbor or greenspline).
