Plotting Inversion Results (caplot3.m)

While the graphics produced during a cainv3.m run are informative, you may wish to produce cleaner plots for a publication or document. Further, you may wish to draft on the figures using xfig. A number of files are written by cainv3.m which capture the solution and data from the inversion. These files are, casol.dat, caoutc.dat, caouta.dat, calsqe.dat, cadeld.dat, and cachi2.dat. These files are automatically read by caplot3.m for a user specified plotting of the results.

From the Octave text window, type the command

caplot3  

Using a GUI interface, caplot3.m will prompt you as follows:
 

DIALOG WITH CAPLOT3.m

1. Show Grid on Plots Click on Yes or No for final plots.
2. Edit Axes Limits Either use defaults (and click OK), or use entry boxes to set new values.
3. Select range of observations to plot. During the inversion, you selected a subset of the frequencies that could be inverted. Do you want your final plot to show all the data, or just the range of frequencies you selected in the inversion?
4. Continue on to Decay Plot? Click YES to continue.
5. Set horizontal and vertical axis limits for Decay Plot. The defaults are for everything. However, you may want to focus on a portion of the data. The procedure will automatically write an xfig file, aplot.fig. Edit limits in the GUI and click OK.
6. Continue to Chi-Square Plot? Click YES to continue.
7. Select axes limits. Defaults are usually OK. Click OK when ready to continue.
