I've been fooling with some shell scripts and the like..
I think I can automatically retrieve the right 1x1 degree chunks of SRTM
data fairly well and then do the interpolation to build the profiles.
The big question for all of you potential users..
I use cURL as a command line tool to retrieve pages/files from websites
(it has Windows, mac, and Linux versions).
There's also wget aria2c and httrack, which I've not used, but which
appear do the same thing.
Any preferences out there?
What I intend to do is write a batch file (for windows) and shell script
(for MacOS X/Linux) that retrieves the square where you are, and the
surrounding 8 (guaranteeing that we've got 50-60 miles of data in every
direction), then fire off a C program that generates the .pro files.
I'll publish source and executables..
I'm thinking you'll start it with something like
>> makepro <N lat in decimal> <W lon in decimal> <profile angle
increment in degrees>
so makepro 34.21874 118.81626 15
would generate a profile for every 15 degrees of azimuth for my QTH
