<div dir="ltr"><div>GSoC 13 WR 9 - 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>- This week I could meet Cristiano and we could clearly define one first clear goal for the development task. I will first focus on producing Safety Factor maps from a set of input from the user such as the requested Return Times of rainfall events. I will leave the development of susceptibility maps as a second deliverable.</div>
<div>- Technically speaking I kept developing a set of classes for handling specificities of the model input data so that now, partially relying on other existing models and partially thanks to my new input preprocessing methods, the OmsCislam model can be initialised with standard - but non suitable - maps. In this way the used is saved from the annoyance of tweaking regular maps to make them usable for the model. </div>
<div><br></div><div>• What will I be working on next week?</div><div><br></div><div>- I will keep implementing tool logic while updating test cases and keeping notes on the tool wiki ( <a href="https://bitbucket.org/mcfoi/jgrasstool-cislam/issues">https://bitbucket.org/mcfoi/jgrasstool-cislam/issues</a> ) about relevant issues. Probably I will stop for some two or three days of vacation so I will not make huge progresses this week.</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>
