Building the book PDF from sources

In order to build the DA1 book from source you will need some prerequisites. The exact installation will depend on your operating system.

0. A UNIX or UNIX-like operating system or shell to understand Makefiles
1. A recent GMT installation 6.x or higher (www.generic-mapping-tools.org)
2. The latex/pdflatex packages (TexLive or similar); see ERTH_DA1_book.tex for needed packages

If you have all prerequisites then you can build ERTH_DA1_book.pdf by typing

make book

If you get errors it is probably related to missing prerequisite tools and libraries, missing Latex styles or include files, etc. Expect to do some forensic work, as different distros may package Latex differently.
