Presenting at SMARTGRAPHICS

Erick Mendez will present the latest results on the saliency techniques (visual techniques to draw the attention of a user) at the ACM/EG SMARTGRAPHICS conference this week. Check it out if you are around, or check the publication here.

Expert interviews

As part of the user-centered design, we will be gathering end-user feedback from experts. If you believe you have a good input that may help us further, please contact the partners at EFLUM.

Graz quarterly meeting

Well, it's time for a quarterly meeting again! Graz will be hosting the two-day meeting at June 23 and 24. Focus: planning for the final year, updating and finalizing the design and integration of the system, and giving out our latest research prototypes for on-site usage. Exciting....

Range of publications submitted

The HYDROSYS consortium has just submitted several publications on the latest research outcomes of the project to a major conference. We can't tell you more, but hey, let's keep our fingers crossed!

Presenting at GI

Alessandro Mulloni will present our great paper on multi-camera navigation today at GI2010. Go check it out if you are attending the conference!

Sneak preview handheld device

See here a sneak preview of the "freshly baked" STL model used for the latest version of the modular handheld device... more coming soon.

Running GEOtop using MeteoIO

As part of the HYDROSYS consortium efforts, GEOtop can now run using the MeteoIO library! The open source software GEOtop is a complete physically based model that exhaustively treats both the runout and the energy balance of the snow and the soil. It allows to describe the interaction and the feedbacks between soil and atmosphere in the mountain environment, where the complex topography and the heterogeneity of the territory require an accurate spatial distribution of the driving variables and of the parameters. The MeteoIO library embedded in GEOtop enables the model to easily access a variety of input data formats (meteo time series and gridded data) and work with them at two different levels: handling meteorological data and performing hydrological simulations.
