Contour Creator 🗺️

This program takes a tiff heightmap and produces vector contours. This is our project for the INF205: Resource-efficient programming course

Status

• Read .tif file into memory using gdal
• Run the marching squares algorithm and produce a "casemap"
• Use a lookuptable to produce a vector file from the "casemap"

Dependencies

• GDAL
• OpenMP

How to build:

mkdir build
cd build
cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug ..
cmake --build . --parallel

Then you can run ./contour-creator PATH/TO/HEIGTHMAP.TIF
