That project aims at providing a clean API, and the corresponding C++ implementation, able to generate demand for travel solutions (e.g., from JFK to PEK on 25-05-2009) according to characteristics (e.g., Willingness-To-Pay, preferred airline, etc).

Framework for storing and editing Forestry-related XML data, with a specialised graphical interface for each object type. Plug-in API for adding functionality. Coded in Java, uses WebStart for distribution, swing GUI, ~100k lines of code.

This trilateration routine will do anchor-free localization and distance estimation for nodes in a 2-D arrangement, where each node knows only distance information to as few as three other nodes. This code has been used for population biology studies.

UIBM (= Universal Individual-Based Model) is an agent-based simulation/3d-dvisualization of the dynamics within multispecies plant communities of Northwest Europe, parameterized from databases using universal scaling laws.

The VIP Toolbox is a set of libraries and tools to enable researchers to process image data from the VEGETATION and other remote sensing sensors.

Artificial life simulation where computer programs (virtual organisms or VOs for short) compete on a grid for computer time. May the most intelligent VO win!

VVG is a software that generates 3D scenes containing high poly models of growing plants. Renders are done via Yafaray and combined to create videos.

WHATCH’EM simulates the highly non-linear manner in which atmospheric conditions and container characteristics determine water temperature and height, leading to results that are not always intuitive and likely not simulated by simpler empirical models. WHATCH’EM has the capacity to be utilized for other mosquitoes and other container-inhabiting arthropods.

A Java system to decode the WMO BUFR format for weather data and translate it to XML.

An isometric game with C++ and SDL. Your beings should survive fighting with other beings, reproducting to make a massive attack and eating. But sometimes you will have to eat some of your own live beings so that others could stay alive, well it's life.

bioCity is a continuous space, discrete time simulation written in C++. It is meant to be of use to population biologists. Rules of behaviour are given to individuals that move, live, die, and procreate.

Simulates data from a gaussian/beta/piecewise-linear species response function on an environmental gradient, with different sampling (error) distributions. See "Cline (biology)" on wikipedia.org.

Interfaces to Vaisala Present Weather (PWD12) and Vaisala NMEA (WS425 or WMT700) serial data and produces DATEX2 V2 compliant tranmissions over a LAN.

This is an simple ecological model for lakes and reservoirs that contains a very detailed description of the most relevant nitrogen processes. The model is not very complete, but the main intention is to develop a library to be coupled with other models and use the full-mixed model as a testing version. A lot of things can be improved. I will read all the suggestions but I cannot promise that I will include all of them. Every new part of the code will contain the name of the author. If someone contributes improving the capabilities of this model in a substantial way, I will include that person as co-author of the model in the next version release. I hope this will promote people to contribute. Of course, fixing bugs or minor changes will also be mentioned with the corresponding author. Thanks a lot. I hope this can be the seed of a Open Source Community of Ecological Modellers.

GeoSciPy is a set of C and Python functions that provide an API for all aspects of Geoscience and Remote Sensing Applications. Functions include reading/writing of many data formats, images, vectors, ..., and processing of images, vectors, ... including map projections, ... The library is written C, using HDF5 as the file format for storage of all remotely-sensed data and ancillary data, as well as processed data. The C functions assume a particular format for the HDF5 file contents, and provide functions for reading and writing data to such files. There is also a Python API that provides a procedural as well as an object-oriented interface to these functions. A Python GUI for interacting with such datasets is also part of the project. While there are other open-source GIS, and image-processing packages available, this one is designed to be comprehensive, work on 3 major platforms, user-extensible, fast, and able to handle huge datasets.

We produced a software for scientists and managers working with marinas, and small harbor. Our software is able to predict the distribution of portuality and vulnerability risk.

A plain C library of functions to compute ecological diversity - equitability - species richness. Includes: Shannon-Wiener, Simpson, Margalef, Berger-Parker, McIntosh, Brillouin, Q, Menhinick, Strong, Gini, RS, Atkinson, Theil, Kolm, ...

mesoFON is an individual-based mangrove forest model. It is a Java implementation of the KiWi model done with RePast Simphony. It contains several new features: (1) You can add up to 10 species via the GUI. However, in principle, the number of species to be included programmatically is unlimited. (2) You can use a variety of growth functions via typing them in as a string on the GUI. (3) The model is transparent, sinc it comes with the Eclipse workbench of RePast.

phpTaxonomy is aimed at providing a framework for presenting web-based lists of species and their organisational structure along with text descriptions and images aiding in the identification of these species. Inluding online administration module.

A collection of python classes for computational ecology and evolutionary biology.

A matlab/octave based reaction transport model describing microbially mediated isotope fractionation processes in porous media.

powerPlant is a plant modelling tool based on parametric plant descriptions, producing highly detailed models that can be exported to 3ds. Deriving similar plants is a matter of 1 click! Complete scenes can be composited with the integrated scene editor.
