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).
|
|
|
|
Our mission is to

|
|
|
**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.**

Our aims are to make AvaFrame:
|
|
+ applicable in an operational setting e.g. for hazard mapping or planning of
|
|
mitigation measures within the WLV and civil engineering.
|
|
+ extensible for scientific applications to be used to develop new methods,
|
|
models and cover a wide range of scientific topics.
|
|
+ easily usable and extendable by (inter-)national partners, academia and interested users.
|
|
|
|
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.
