PLOT COMMAND LANGUAGE TRANSLATOR PROGRAM
J P Penzian · 1971
THIS COMPUTER PROGRAM REPRESENTS ONE OF THREE FORTRAN IV PROGRAMS NECESSARY TO GENERATE PERSPECTIVE HIGHWAY VIEWS FROM DESIGN DATA. THE THREE PROGRAMS COMPRISING THE PERSPECTIVE PLOT SYSTEM ARE: (1) TEMPLATE CONVERTER, (2) PERSPECTIVE PLOT, AND (3) PLOT COMMAND LANGUAGE TRANSLATOR. THE STANDARD PLOT FORMAT OUTPUT FROM THE PERSPECTIVE PLOT PROGRAM IS ACCEPTED FROM THE PLOT COMMAND LANGUAGE TRANSLATOR AND TRANSLATED INTO A CALCOMP PLOTTER TAPE. BY MAKING APPROPRIATE SUBSTITUTIONS IN THE SUBROUTINE CALLS IN THE SUBJECT PROGRAM, PLOTTING MAY BE ACCOMPLISHED VIA OTHER MEDIA SUCH AS A CATHODE RAY TUBE. THE REPORT CONTAINS A USER GUIDE, PROGRAM DOCUMENTATION, SOURCE PROGRAM LISTING AND AN EXAMPLE PROBLEM. /FHWA/
