VectorDesigner 1.5.1 is known as a comprehensive and useful application for vector drawings, diagrams, illustrations. In addition, it is also good for raster image handling, filtering and color correction, offering everything users need to create professional level vector artwork, such as posters, brochures, stickers, logos, web design, t-shirts and more.
Major Features:
- It features a wide range of tools and smart shapes: easily create rectangles, ovals, polygons, stars, bezier curves - even convert bitmap images to vector-based drawings thanks to VectorDesigner's automatic raster to vector conversion!
- VectorDesigner even provides advanced tools for performing geometric operations, to achieve total control over your drawings (union, subtraction, intersection and exclusive-or operations)
- Text can be constrained within a shape, or along a path - while still preserving the full text editing capabilities of Mac OS X!
- Through the built-in Flickr browser, you can have a massive library of textures and images at your fingertips! Enhance your creations by searching images by color or tags, and insert them into your drawing with a single click.
- Achieve unique effects by applying filters and Quartz compositions to your shapes and images - in a non-destructive way!
- When printing color, printers use a different technology from that used by your display. Therefore, the colors that you see on screen may not accurately match what is printed. VectorDesigner solves the problem: by softproofing your document, you see on screen a very close representation of what you will get on paper.
Enhancements:

GRASS GIS 6.4rc5
Geographic resources analysis support system. more>>
GRASS GIS 6.4rc5 is stand for Geographic Resources Analysis Support System, which used for data management, image processing, graphics production, spatial modelling, and visualization of many types of data. It is Free (Libre) Software/Open Source released under GNU General Public License (GPL). GRASS is official project of the Open Source Geospatial Foundation.
Originally developed by the U.S. Army Construction Engineering Research Laboratories (USA-CERL, 1982-1995), a branch of the US Army Corp of Engineers, as a tool for land management and environmental planning by the military, GRASS has evolved into a powerful utility with a wide range of applications in many different areas of scientific research. GRASS is currently used in academic and commercial settings around the world, as well as many governmental agencies including NASA, NOAA, USDA, DLR, CSIRO, the National Park Service, the U.S. Census Bureau, USGS, and many environmental consulting companies.
The new GRASS 6 release introduces a new topological 2D/3D vector engine and support for vector network analysis. Attributes are now managed in a SQL-based DBMS. A new display manager has been implemented. The NVIZ visualization tool was enhanced to display 3D vector data and voxel volumes. Messages are partially translated (i18N) with support for FreeType fonts, including multibyte Asian characters. New LOCATIONs can be auto-generated by EPSG code number. GRASS is integrated with GDAL/OGR libraries to support an extensive range of raster and vector formats, including OGC-conformal Simple Features.
The GRASS Development Team has grown into a multi-national team consisting of developers at numerous locations.
In September 2006, the GRASS Project Steering Commitee was formed which is responsible for the overall management of the project. The PSC is especially responsible for granting SVN write access.
Major Features:
- GRASS (Geographic Resources Analysis Support System) is a raster/vector GIS, image processing system, and graphics production system.
- GRASS contains over 350 programs and tools to render maps and images on monitor and paper; manipulate raster, vector, and sites data; process multi spectral image data; and create, manage, and store spatial data.
- GRASS uses both an intuitive windows interface as well as command line syntax for ease of operations.
- GRASS can interface with commercial printers, plotters, digitizers, and databases to develop new data as well as manage existing data.
- GRASS supports workgroups through its LOCATION/MAPSET concept which can be set up to share data over NFS (Network File System). Keeping LOCATIONs with their underlying MAPSETs on a central server, a team can simultaneously work in the same project database.
- GRASS is released under GNU GPL, the source code (5.x: more than 1 million lines of C; 6.x 500k SLOC) is completely available.
- GRASS provides a sophisticated GIS library which can be used for own developments.
Enhancements:
- New modules
- Major module changes
- Minor module changes
- Library changes
- Driver changes
- GUI changes
- Portability changes
- Build changes
- Documentation updates
- Message translation updates
- Closed tickets

GCContourPlotter is a free Cocoa implementation of CONREC with additional code to efficiently convert to NSBezierPaths. If you have a need to plot contours in your Cocoa applicaiton, this may well be what you are looking for.
CONREC is a popular algorithm used for generating contour lines from three-dimensional height data. While more sophisticated algorithms certainly exist, for many uses CONREC is perfectly adequate, and has the advantage of being easy to understand and implement, reasonably fast, and well-known in the public domain.
Detailed information about the project and its usage can be found here.
