'WinProm' is a
computer program written by a
mathematician Edward Earl of
San Diego. The program uses
USGS Digital Elevation Model (DEM) databases to automatically calculate
peaks,
ridges, and
key cols. It is intended to help calculate the
prominence of a peak in the cases when the key col is very far away from a high-prominence peak.
The program saves time by identifying areas where high peaks are, and areas where the key col is likely to be found.
The program is very complex and has many enhancements, such as algorithms that try to match DEM maxima to known peak locations.
