CGAL is used in various areas needing geometric computation, such as geographic information systems, computer aided design, molecular biology, medical imaging, computer graphics, and robotics.

Some parts of CGAL are available under the LGPL, other parts are under the GPL (please see http://www.cgal.org/license.html for further explanation)

Usage

Upcoming modulesystem change alert!

Due to large number of applications and their versions it is not practical to keep them explicitly listed at our wiki pages. Therefore an upgrade of modulefiles is underway. A feature of this upgrade will be the existence of default module for every application. This default choice does not need version number and it will load some (usually latest) version.

You can test the new version now by adding a line

source /cvmfs/software.metacentrum.cz/modulefiles/5.1.0/loadmodules

to your script before loading a module. Then, you can list all versions of cgal and load default version of cgal as

module avail cgal/ # list available modules
module load cgal   # load (default) module


If you wish to keep up to the current system, it is still possible. Simply list all modules by

module avail cgal

and choose explicit version you want to use.
