Abstract

A windows software, GSS Generator, was developed to generate generalized spiral sets that are the sets of points with uniform distribution on the unit sphere. The software can save the spherical and Cartesian coordinates of the points in text files. A viewer is also implemented to see their distribution on a hemisphere by equal-area projection, and one can save the image as a bitmap file or an enhanced metafile.
