isGrafLab

isGrafLab (Irregular Surface GRAvity Field LABoratory) is a modified version of GrafLab that allows accurate and fast computation of functionals of the geopotential on dense grids at irregular surfaces such as the Earth surface. isGrafLab employs the highly efficient lumped coefficients approach for the evaluations at regular surfaces (the sphere or the ellipsoid of revolution), and the Taylor series expansions to continue these functionals to the irregular surface. All the other options available in GrafLab, such as the employment of three different approaches to compute the fully normalized associated Legendre functions, the graphical user interface or the possibility to depict data on a map, are also available in the new software.
