Description

Perl module for creating geographic 10km-square maps using either SVG or PNG (with GD library) output format.

Originally design to map the location of objects in a 10 km map IrishGrid includes:

• native support of the Irish Grid System (see http://www.osi.ie/)
• optimize for speed (there's as less as possible data to conversion)
• customized color functions

As input file, IrishGrid uses a text comma separated format (CSV). Each line represents a record (in chronological order). The first field defined the color (red, green, blue, black, grey, white), the second the position (using the Irish Grid System). ``` example.csv

blue, O008741 red, C948454 ... ```

Examples

``` # SVG file ./irishgrid.pl --in=example.csv --svg > mymap.svg

# PNG file with 10 pixels squares ./irishgrid.pl --in=example.csv --size=10 > mymap.png ```
