NAME

Natgrid - a package for gridding 2D randomly-spaced data using a natural neighbor algorithm. Single precison and double precision interfaces exist in both Fortran and C.

SYNOPSIS

FORTRAN single precision
------------------------

NATGRIDS - primary function for gridding.
NNSETI - set INTEGER parameter values.
NNGETI - retrieve values for INTEGER parameters.
NNSETR - set REAL parameter values.
NNGETR - retrieve values for REAL parameters.
NNSETC - set CHARACTER valued parameters.
NNGETC - retrieve values for CHARACTER parameters.
NNGETSLOPES - get slope values, if calculated.
NNGETASPECTS - get aspect values, if calculated.
NNPNTINITS - initiate single point mode.
NNPNTS - interpolate at a single point.
NNPNTEND - terminate single point mode.

Fortran double precision (not supported on UNICOS):
--------------------------------------------------

NATGRIDD - primary function for gridding.
NNSETI - set INTEGER parameter values.
