<h1>About</h1>
</header>
<hr>
<p>We are currently starting this project, so this space will get filled step by step</p>
<p>AvaFrame is a cooperation between the Austrian Avalanche and Torrent Service
(Wildbach- und Lawinenverbauung; WLV) and the Austrian Research Centre for
Forests (Bundesforschungszentrum für Wald; BFW) within the Federal Ministry
Republic of Austria: Agriculture, Regions and Tourism (BMLRT).</p>
<p>Our mission is to</p>
<hr>
<p><strong>Develop an open source framework (licensed with the European Union Public
license (EUPL) ) for avalanche simulations which replicates and simplifies
current simulation procedures and models at the WLV and make them accessible
to the public domain.</strong></p>
<hr>
<p>Our aims are to make AvaFrame:</p>
<ul>
<li>applicable in an operational setting e.g. for hazard mapping or planning of
mitigation measures within the WLV and civil engineering.</li>
<li>extensible for scientific applications to be used to develop new methods,
models and cover a wide range of scientific topics.</li>
<li>easily usable and extendable by (inter-)national partners, academia and interested users.</li>
</ul>
<p>AvaFrame is part of an BMLRT initiative to foster technological innovation
within a strategic focus on the area of Austrian safety policies, digital
innovations and climate mitigation strategies.</p>
