About

Motivation

This program was written by D. Haley, starting in February 2010, during his spare time. The first usable prototype, prior to the 0.0.1 release was finished at the end of July 2010.

A. Ceguerra helped with Mac OS porting for 0.0.1, and developed many of the features and bugfixes in the program since August 2010.

The program was deloped to meet personal analysis needs. Understanding the relationship between the action of computer algorithms on point data, and the effect of input parameters (mainly distortion corrections), necessitated the development of a rapid-feedback system. Secondly the problem needed the abiilty to flexibly construct unusual combinations of operations.

In short, if you can see something, you might just understand it.
