Surfer Description

Displays the relation between formulas and forms by creating algebraic surfaces through equations. Input simple equations to produce images based on their interpretation. Rotate a surface, zoom in or out, change its parameters, assign colors to its exterior or interior side. Surfer is a powerful 3D modeling tool that embeds various features and which can be used in extensive fields, from bathymetric modeling, surface analysis, contour mapping, to 3D surface mapping or terrain modeling. The application's GUI can be described as modern, simple and high responsive. It embeds plenty of useful customizations, it provides users a few themes to choose from and has a nicely shaped toolbar menu. However, it does require some time to accommodate and it's not designed to be used by users that are unfamiliarized with this work field. This utility provides the tools to visualize all types of data and comes with a wide variety of maps customizations. Users can edit all axis parameters, combine or stack multiple maps, or add text, polylines, symbols, and polygons. Its interpolation engine is able to transform XYZ data into quality maps, and it offers multiple gridding methods over gridding parameters or customized variograms. Furthermore, users are being allowed to transmute the lighting or exhibit angle and tilt with just a mouse click. Besides, the program automatically blends colors between percentage values. All in all, Surfer is a good choice for users who seek a comprehensive program to perform 3D surface mapping operations, though the navigation sometimes becomes laggy and the price seems expensive.
