Is there an online tool available to calculate porkchop plots at arbitrary resolutions? Real world only please -- I am aware of the tools available to do this for, say, KSP.

$\begingroup$ I wonder how often real rocket scientists get jealous of KSP players for all the handy numerical tools they have at their disposal. $\endgroup$– SF.Dec 18, 2015 at 11:01

The Technical University of Madrid offers an online porkchop plotter application that I've used before. You may want to give it a try--I thought it was pretty good.
Here is what the entry form looks like:
And here is one of the resulting plots:

$\begingroup$ The question is for a link to a pork chop plotter online, I'm not sure what more I could add that would be essential? I'm new to this so if you could show me what I could add I'd appreciate it. $\endgroup$– david_cAug 20, 2018 at 8:01

2$\begingroup$ @david_c I fleshed it out a little bit for you to give you and idea of what folks are looking for. Ideally, it could still use some more text--maybe a summary of the features or philosophy of the tool? $\endgroup$– called2voyage ♦Aug 20, 2018 at 13:20
