        Global Digital Elevation Model Data Viewer Python Script        
        --------------------------------------------------------        

Viewer for GTOPO30 - Global Topographic Data

The program starts by opening a DEM (Digital Elevation Model) file. This
program requires the .dem file, the .gif file and the .hdr file from the
GTOPO30 archive. The right panel contains controls for setting the
Longitude, Latitude and size of the area to be rendered. You can also
set the area using the mouse. When you are done selecting the area press
the Refresh button on the left panel to display the 3D image. The left
panel controls set the rotation angle, the angle above the horizon and
the distance in pixel units out from the center for the grid type of
rendering. The Display control selects the type of rendering method. You
can change any of these factors and just press the Refresh button to
display changes.

I have only tested this out on Win 98.
