Golden Software Surfer is a contouring, grinding, and 3D surface mapping application. It is primarily used to model terrain and bathymetric charts, visualize landscapes, analyze surfaces, and map 3D surfaces.
Surfer supports a large amount of data and grid formats including GSI, SRF, HDF, CSV, DXF, ECW, ASC, ERS, and TAB. Its interpolation engine takes your XYZ data and transforms it into professional looking maps. You can visualize your grids as a variety of maps such as 3D surface, contour, watershed, vector, 3D wireframe, view shed, shaded relief, and image. The application provides more gridding methods and control over gridding parameters than any other software package in its field.
Surfer is utilized in the scientific field of study by geologists, hydrologists, archaeologists, biologists, oceanographers, climatologists, medical researchers, and geophysicists. It supports a large number of data and grid formats and gives you full control over the appearance of your data maps. If you work in the scientific field and need a map visualizing tool for your XYZ data, Golden Software Surfer is a reasonably priced piece of software that will get the job done.

Golden Software Releases Surfer® 13 with Lat/Long Graticule Lines and Viewshed Analysis
GOLDEN, COLORADO, July 14, 2015 – Golden Software, the leading developer of affordable scientific graphics software, announces the release of Surfer 13, a powerful, user-friendly software package which accurately transforms XYZ data into presentation-ready maps.
Introduced in 1984, Surfer has emerged as the industry standard gridding and contour mapping software used by geologists, hydrologists and engineers. Surfer 13 offers thirteen different gridding methods, including Kriging with variograms, to convert irregularly spaced XYZ data into a uniform grid. Display a grid or digital elevation model in one of nine fully customizable 2D and 3D grid-based map types: contour, watershed, viewshed, image, shaded relief, 1-grid and 2-grid vector, 3D wireframe, and 3D surface maps. Enhance the display by adding post and base maps. Maps generated with Surfer are known for their clarity, vibrancy and accuracy.
Surfer 13 contains over 250 new features and improvements as requested by users. Taylormade burner driver 10.5. One of the most popular new features in Surfer 13 is the ability to display latitude/longitude graticule lines over a projected map, allowing users to view their maps and data in various coordinate units. Users can also create an additional grid in different units, allowing users to project a map in one set of units (e.g. meters) and display a grid in different units, such as feet.
In addition to displaying latitude and longitude graticule lines, users can now perform viewshed analysis. Surfer calculates and displays the areas visible, or invisible, from a specific point location. Viewshed maps have a wide range of uses in industries like security, architecture and landscape architecture, military, communications, surveying, wildlife research, and urban planning.

Two other powerful time-saving upgrades to Surfer 13 are performing queries on features in base maps and utilizing the new vector editing options. Query features in any base map by its properties or an attribute value. This allows the user to identify the features that meet certain criteria for deletion, emphasis, or export. Geoprocessing, or vector editing, has become increasingly popular and Surfer now supports more editing tools than ever. Create buffer polygons around features at specific distances, points at intersections, new polygons from existing polygons, and many more.
Comments from Surfer 13 Beta Testers:
“Thank you for adding the query function! This will help with editing DXF files and other large base map files I seem to always create. I’m opening a lot of old files and making lots queries.”
Chuck Rhine
“I love the buffer function. Thanks a bunch. Very useful and powerful feature. This will save me a bunch of time in the future.”
Shane Wilkes
Shane Wilkes
“The graticule option is really nice! It’s great for those times that you need to work in UTM but display in Lat/Long. And the ability to use other units when for projected maps is really nice, too. Working in UTM but displaying in feet can be useful. Great work!”
