This month in AvaFrame - March 2022 edition

Posted by OpenNHM on Sunday, April 3, 2022

Welcome to the March 2022 update.

As you might have noticed from all the other posts, this month saw our 1st public workshop. In case you missed it, see the previous post for a link to its recording. Big thanks to all participants, it is nice to know the interest in our project! And also, a big thanks for all the feedback we got, it is always very much appreciated.

We are still working on the first release, which is expected to be released within the next few weeks (probably beginning of April).

  • Add the version to all logs, including full info about the commit / tag the current code is on. You are on modified code if you see a +dirty in the version. This means this code is not reproducible! If you need reproducibility, please make sure you are on a clean commit.

  • Add date to log name to be able to find the latest log and not overwriting any logs.

  • We have a new ana5utils module with thalweg-time diagrams and simulograms, i.e. figures and methods related to radar measurements and a new way to display temporal evolution of simulations results. We will adequately introduce this in an upcoming publication.

  • A few plots were improved. Most notably is adding hillshade and contours to the standard peak plots.

  • Update documentation, especially by adding info about ata viscosity.

  • An improvement regarding the AvaFrameConnector (for QGis): Alpha-Beta is now optional in the operational runscript, i.e. profiles and split points are not mandatory anymore.

  • We fixed the missing tau0 in the friction relation SamosAT. It is by default set to 0, so there is no impact on already calculated standard runs.

We had a few release candidates, for a full changelog see github releases .
