DESCRIPTION
pspolar reads data values from files [or standard input] and generates PostScript code that will plot stations on focal mechanisms on a map. The PostScript code is written to standard output. Parameters are expected to be in the following columns 1,2,3,4 station_code, azimuth, take-off angle, polarity polarity: - compression can be c,C,u,U,+ - rarefaction can be d,D,r,R,- - not defined is anything else
ARGUMENTS
files List one or more file-names. If no files are given, pspolar will read standard input. -J Selects the map projection. Scale is UNIT/degree, 1:xxxxx, or width in UNIT (upper case modifier). UNIT is cm, inch, or m, depending on the MEASURE_UNIT setting in .gmtdefaults4, but this can be overridden on the command line by appending c, i, or m to the scale/width value. When central meridian is optional, default is center of longitude range on -R option. Default standard parallel is the equator. For map height, max dimension, or min dimension, append h, +, or - to the width, respectively. More details can be found in the psbasemap man pages. CYLINDRICAL PROJECTIONS: -Jclon0/lat0/scale (Cassini) -Jcyl_stere/[lon0/[lat0/]]scale (Cylindrical Stereographic) -Jj[lon0/]scale (Miller) -Jm[lon0/[lat0/]]scale (Mercator) -Jmlon0/lat0/scale (Mercator - Give meridian and standard parallel) -Jo[a]lon0/lat0/azimuth/scale (Oblique Mercator - point and azimuth) -Jo[b]lon0/lat0/lon1/lat1/scale (Oblique Mercator - two points) -Joclon0/lat0/lonp/latp/scale (Oblique Mercator - point and pole) -Jq[lon0/[lat0/]]scale (Cylindrical Equidistant) -Jtlon0/[lat0/]scale (TM - Transverse Mercator) -Juzone/scale (UTM - Universal Transverse Mercator) -Jy[lon0/[lat0/]]scale (Cylindrical Equal-Area) CONIC PROJECTIONS: -Jblon0/lat0/lat1/lat2/scale (Albers) -Jdlon0/lat0/lat1/lat2/scale (Conic Equidistant) -Jllon0/lat0/lat1/lat2/scale (Lambert Conic Conformal) -Jpoly/[lon0/[lat0/]]scale ((American) Polyconic) AZIMUTHAL PROJECTIONS: -Jalon0/lat0[/horizon]/scale (Lambert Azimuthal Equal-Area) -Jelon0/lat0[/horizon]/scale (Azimuthal Equidistant) -Jflon0/lat0[/horizon]/scale (Gnomonic) -Jglon0/lat0[/horizon]/scale (Orthographic) -Jglon0/lat0/altitude/azimuth/tilt/twist/Width/Height/scale (General Perspective). -Jslon0/lat0[/horizon]/scale (General Stereographic) MISCELLANEOUS PROJECTIONS: -Jh[lon0/]scale (Hammer) -Ji[lon0/]scale (Sinusoidal) -Jkf[lon0/]scale (Eckert IV) -Jk[s][lon0/]scale (Eckert VI) -Jn[lon0/]scale (Robinson) -Jr[lon0/]scale (Winkel Tripel) -Jv[lon0/]scale (Van der Grinten) -Jw[lon0/]scale (Mollweide) NON-GEOGRAPHICAL PROJECTIONS: -Jp[a]scale[/origin][r|z] (Polar coordinates (theta,r)) -Jxx-scale[d|l|ppow|t|T][/y-scale[d|l|ppow|t|T]] (Linear, log, and power scaling) -R west, east, south, and north specify the Region of interest, and you may specify them in decimal degrees or in [+-]dd:mm[:ss.xxx][W|E|S|N] format. Append r if lower left and upper right map coordinates are given instead of w/e/s/n. The two shorthands -Rg and -Rd stand for global domain (0/360 and -180/+180 in longitude respectively, with -90/+90 in latitude). Alternatively, specify the name of an existing grid file and the -R settings (and grid spacing, if applicable) are copied from the grid. -D longitude/latitude Maps the bubble at given longitude and latitude point. -M size Sets the size of the beach ball to plot polarities in. Size is in inch (unless c, i, m, or p is appended). -S<symbol_type><size> Selects symbol_type and symbol size. Size is in inch (unless c, i, m, or p is appended). Choose symbol type from st(a)r, (c)ircle, (d)iamond, (h)exagon, (i)nverted triangle, (p)oint, (s)quare, (t)riangle, (x)cross.
OPTIONS
No space between the option flag and the associated arguments. -B Sets map boundary annotation and tickmark intervals; see the psbasemap man page for all the details. -C Offsets focal mechanisms to the latitude and longitude specified in the last two columns of the input file. -E fill Selects filling of symbols for stations in extensive quadrants. Set the shade (0-255) or color (r/g/b) [Default is 250/250/250]. If -Efill is the same as -Ffill, use -e to outline. -e[pen] Outline symbols in extensive quadrants using pen or the default pen (see -W). -Ffill Sets background color of the beach ball. Default is no fill. -f[pen] Outline the beach ball using pen or the default pen (see -W). -Gfill Selects filling of symbols for stations in compressional quadrants. Set the shade (0-255) or color (r/g/b) [Default is 0/0/0]. -g[pen] Outline symbols in compressional quadrants using pen or the default pen (see -W). -H Input file(s) has header record(s). If used, the default number of header records is N_HEADER_RECS. Use -Hi if only input data should have header records [Default will write out header records if the input data have them]. Blank lines and lines starting with # are always skipped. -h Use special format derived from HYPO71 output -K More PostScript code will be appended later [Default terminates the plot system]. -N Does NOT skip symbols that fall outside map border [Default plots points inside border only]. -O Selects Overlay plot mode [Default initializes a new plot system]. -P Selects Portrait plotting mode [Default is Landscape, see gmtdefaults to change this]. -shalf-size/[V[v_width/h_length/h_width/shape]][Gr/g/b][L] Plots S polarity azimuth. S polarity is in last column. It may be a vector (V option) or a segment. Give half-size,v_width,h_length,h_width in inch (unless c, i, m, or p is appended). [L] option is for outline. -Tangle/form/justify/fontsize in points To write station code. [Default is 0.0/0/5/12]. -t pen Set pen color to write station code. Default uses the default pen (see -W). -U Draw Unix System time stamp on plot. By adding just/dx/dy/, the user may specify the justification of the stamp and where the stamp should fall on the page relative to lower left corner of the plot. For example, BL/0/0 will align the lower left corner of the time stamp with the lower left corner of the plot. Optionally, append a label, or c (which will plot the command string.). The GMT parameters UNIX_TIME, UNIX_TIME_POS, and UNIX_TIME_FORMAT can affect the appearance; see the gmtdefaults man page for details. The time string will be in the locale set by the environment variable TZ (generally local time). -V Selects verbose mode, which will send progress reports to stderr [Default runs "silently"]. -W Set current pen attributes [Defaults: width = 1, color = 0/0/0, texture = solid]. -X -Y Shift plot origin relative to the current origin by (x-shift,y-shift) and optionally append the length unit (c, i, m, p). You can prepend a to shift the origin back to the original position after plotting, or prepend r [Default] to reset the current origin to the new location. If -O is used then the default (x- shift,y-shift) is (0,0), otherwise it is (r1i, r1i) or (r2.5c, r2.5c). Alternatively, give c to align the center coordinate (x or y) of the plot with the center of the page based on current page size. -: Toggles between (longitude,latitude) and (latitude,longitude) input and/or output. [Default is (longitude,latitude)]. Append i to select input only or o to select output only. [Default affects both]. -c Specifies the number of plot copies. [Default is 1].
