My goal for this portion of the site is to write or post a series of tutorials on various techniques in cartography or computer graphics. This will also likely be where I finally write a guide, perhaps even a user manual, for Pyramid Shader, a program that started out as one of my class projects in grad school and has become, mostly due to additions from my professor and colleagues, a versatile terrain mapping tool. I have plans for some additional cartography utilities and will announce their availability here as well.
