## NAME

| gmtlegs − Find cruises in a given region

## SYNOPSIS

| gmtlegs −Rwest/east/south/north[r] [ −G ] [ −M ] [ −T ] [ −L ] [ −V ]

## DESCRIPTION

| gmtlegs will report the name of all the cruises that happened to be wholly or partially inside the specified region. As an option, only those cruises that collected a certain type of data can be reported.

| −R |  | west, east, south, and north specify the Region of interest, and you may specify them in decimal degrees or in [+-]dd:mm[:ss.xxx][W|E|S|N] format. Append r if lower left and upper right map coordinates are given instead of wesn. The two shorthands −Rg −Rd stand for global domain (0/360 or -180/+180 in longitude respectively, with -90/+90 in latitude).

## OPTIONS

| No space between the option flag and the associated arguments

| −G |  | Report cruises that collected Gravity data. [Default is any data].
| −M |  | Report cruises that collected Magnetics. [Default is any data].
| −T |  | Report cruises that collected Topography. [Default is any data].
| −L |  | Long output, i.e. cruisenames and data types available. [Default is cruisenames only].
| −V |  | Selects verbose mode, which will send progress reports to stderr [Default runs "silently"].

## EXAMPLES

| To find all cruises around Hawaii that collected gravity and topography: gmtlegs −R-162/-152/18/25 −G −T > hawaii_gt.legs To find all cruises with magnetics: gmtlegs −R0/360/-90/90 −M > all_m.legs
