Geomorphic Covariance Structure (GCS) analysis GUI

The gcs_gui.py script in this package when ran will pull up a graphical-user interface / GUI that simplifies the process of multi-flow stage GCS analysis.

For more information on GCS analysis please reference my PI Gregory Pasternack's video which is part of a series introducing the topic. To see real-world outputs of this software within an appropriate scientific context please reference this recording of my graduate/MS exit seminar.
