Additional Software

There are several additional programs that users may find useful, if not necessary, to install before running GAMIT/GLOBK. The major addition is GMT, which is required for any GAMIT/GLOBK scripts that produce plots, e.g. sh_plot_pos, sh_plotvel, etc. You can install GMT for Debian-based Linux distributions such as Ubuntu from the main repository, e.g.

$ sudo apt install gmt gmt-dcw gmt-gshhg

or from a community repository for RPM-based distributions such as openSUSE, e.g.

$ sudo zypper ar -f http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/beyerle:/IAC/openSUSE_Leap_15.1/home:beyerle:IAC.repo
