GWB, the GuidosToolbox Workbench is a subset of the desktop software package GTB (https://forest.jrc.ec.europa.eu/en/activities/lpa/gtb/) designed as a cmd-line application for Linux 64bit servers. Full installation packages, including precompiled executables of the application, can be downloaded from the project homepage (https://forest.jrc.ec.europa.eu/en/activities/lpa/gwb/). GWB is written in the IDL language, and you must be the legal owner of an IDL licence to compile the IDL source code. Further information on the IDL software can be found at: https://www.harrisgeospatial.com. Alternative to using IDL, feel free to recode the IDL source code to the programming language of your choice.
