[ECOLOG-L] help: cartogram software recommendations? (free better than $$!)

2016-03-19 Thread Malcolm McCallum
Does anyone have any recommendations regarding freeware that can be
used to make cartograms?  I have a variety of data for over 100
countries that I would like to express in a series of cartograms.  If
you can make a recommendation to me, that would be great.  :)
