<div dir="ltr"><div>GSoC 13 WR 7 - Hydrologically controlled landslides susceptibility tool for uDig</div><div><br></div><div>Hi mates!</div><div><br></div><div>I’m Marco and I am working on the development of a tool to assess susceptibility of hydrologically controlled shallow landslides.</div>
<div>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</div><div><br></div><div>These are the tasks I’ve been doing during this third week:</div>
<div><br></div><div>• What did I do this week?</div><div><br></div><div>- 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:</div>
<div>"Java Open Source GIS Development - From the building block to extending an existing GIS application"</div><div><a href="http://jgrasstechtips.blogspot.it/2013/01/course-java-open-source-gis-development.html">http://jgrasstechtips.blogspot.it/2013/01/course-java-open-source-gis-development.html</a></div>
<div>I believe the time was well spent but I am aware that I will have to recover the delay.</div><div>- Also I could not meet Cristiano Lanni due to his work committments</div><div><br></div><div>• What will I be working on next week?</div>
<div><br></div><div>- 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.</div><div>- I will return on the "main road" and resume working on creating sub-mdules of the core algorithm.</div>
<div><br></div><div>• Did I meet with any stumbling blocks?</div><div><br></div><div>- No.</div><div><br></div><div>Best regards,</div><div>Marco</div></div>
