GSoC 13 WR 7 - Hydrologically controlled landslides susceptibility tool for uDig
Hi mates!
I’m Marco and I am working on the development of a tool to assess susceptibility of hydrologically controlled shallow landslides.
The software will be based on the Ph.D. Thesis in Environmental Engineering by Lanni C. (2012) and will consist of a model available for use within the uDig/JGrass Spatial Toolbox
These are the tasks I’ve been doing during this third week:
• What did I do this week?
- Ok. I'll admit it: this week I diverted from the main project goal. I felt I needed to grow a deeper familiarity with the two main libraries behind JGrassTools. I spent the week practicing with GeoTools and the Java Topology Suite. I covered the materials from the very nice course by Andrea Antonello:
"Java Open Source GIS Development - From the building block to extending an existing GIS application"
I believe the time was well spent but I am aware that I will have to recover the delay.
- Also I could not meet Cristiano Lanni due to his work committments
• What will I be working on next week?
- I will see if I can finally meet with Cristiano Lanni before he goes on vacation: I still need some hints on his R script.
- I will return on the "main road" and resume working on creating sub-mdules of the core algorithm.
• Did I meet with any stumbling blocks?
- No.
Best regards,
Marco
