In case you wondered where your beloved monthly update is, it was delayed due to
|
|
us working on a big announcement:
|
|
|
|
We released [version 0.5](https://github.com/avaframe/AvaFrame/releases/tag/v0.5),
|
|
our so called **public prototype**.
|
|
|
|
So now why is this big? (Apart from being a project milestone, which you couldn't
|
|
care less about I guess)
|
|
|
|
**This is the first release that is being tested for
|
|
application in operational hazard mapping.**
|
|
|
|
To achieve this, quite a few things changed:
|
|
|
|
- Version 0.4 saw us switching to our own code for the dense flow module
|
|
com1DFA. The original module is still available, but our development efforts
|
|
will now focus on the new one.
|
|
|
|
- With version 0.5 we completely overhauled and updated the documentation to include things
|
|
like:
|
|
- updated descriptions of the modules
|
|
- installation instructions for Windows
|
|
- new DFA algorithm [description page](https://docs.avaframe.org/en/latest/com1DFAAlgorithm.html)
|
|
- and many more changes...
|
|
|
|
- We created a [new repository](https://github.com/avaframe/QGisAF) for the
|
|
connection between QGis and AvaFrame. This means you can run our operational
|
|
workflow from inside QGis. It is a setup for running com1DFA (dense flow) and
|
|
com2AB (alpha beta), in which you can change
|
|
release thicknesses and run multiple scenarios, but the rest of the setup is
|
|
according to our current default setup.
|
|
|
|
- and many more functional changes under the hood, see the main ones in our
|
|
[release notes](https://docs.avaframe.org/en/latest/releaseNotes.html).
|
|
|
|
- Together with C. Tollinger (Fachzentrum f. Geologie und Lawinen, WLV) we
|
|
developed a visualisation of the main peak variables based on colormaps that
|
|
works better for people with vision deficiencies (e.g. red/green blindness).
|
|
These plots now work for normal vision, red/green deficiency and in grayscale.
|
|
See examples for the test case ALR at the end of this post.
|
|
|
|
We invite you to give this version a try, but expect some rough edges.
|
|
But whatever you do, enjoy your summer (or your winter for the southern
|
|
hemisphere people out there)!
|
|
|
|
Signing out for summer,
