Contour Heightmap

A fast python library for generating contour maps from heightmaps and images.

Given an image file (preferably RGB PNG), it will output a PNG with topographic contour lines and an SVG file of the contour lines.

Quick Start

How do I contour an image?

from contourheightmap import ContourHeightmap

c = ContourHeightmap()
c.contour("path/to/heightmap.png")

Result will be in output.png and output.svg

How do I provide an output filename?

from contourheightmap import ContourHeightmap

c = ContourHeightmap()
c.contour("path/to/heightmap.png", "path/to/output.png")

Output will also be in path/to/output.svg

How do I output a contoured image from the command line?

contourheightmap.sh examples/heightmap.png 

Result will be in output.png
