Maptitude - http://research.umbc.edu/~roswell/maptitude.html
To the list,
As indicated in the license agreement, users shall not "use the Product to
create data in Caliper's CDF data format for sale or any other commercial
purpose without the prior written permission of Caliper.
Since we support so many other file formats, we do not feel that this
restriction should be a problem for Maptitude users.
