Fortran is a general-purpose, imperative programming language that is especially suited to numeric computation and scientific computing. Originally developed by IBM in the 1950s for scientific and engineering applications, Fortran came to dominate this area of programming early on and has been in continuous use for over half a century in computationally intensive areas such as numerical weather prediction, finite element analysis, computational fluid dynamics, computational physics and computational chemistry. It is one of the most popular languages in the area of high-performance computing and is the language used for programs that benchmark and rank the world’s fastest supercomputers.

FRAGSTATS is a computer software program designed to compute a wide variety of landscape metrics for categorical map patterns. It interfaces with ArcGIS and supports and a variety of sampling methods for analyzing sub-landscapes. It accepts raster images in a variety of formats, including ASCII grid, 8-, 16- and 32-bit integer grids, ESRI grid (or raster), GeoTIFF grid, VTP binary terrain format grid, ESRI header labelled grid, ERDAS Imagine grid, PCRaster grid, and SAGA GIS binary format grid. Support for the latter six image formats is via the GDAL library.
