[SciPy-User] Obtaining constant contours

I've got a C extension that does "marching squares" on 2D raster data  
to get iso-contour lines out (to sub-pixel resolution via linear  
interpolation). It's pretty fast, if this is something you're going to  
be doing a lot.

I'll send it along if desired...
