Status OGC

No news on the OGC.

SDK's / GUI's

Fluid Earth SDK/Pipistrelle

status?

OATC C# SDK/GUI

Deltares indeed is using the current OATC SDK.
See also previous meetings on actions yet to be taken on the SDK.

Oatc Java SDK/GUI

 Rob is working on the SDK starting with easy test cases.

Other issues

Robert Szczepanek, the developer from Poland is a private member now from the Association. We can invite him to the OATC. We could arrange a specific session on his Python work.
Standa will ask him wether he would like that.

Started to work a Python version of OpenMI.

Jesper makes Mike SHE OpenMI 2 compliant, leading to bug fixes in the SDK.

Rob is writing an OpenMI article for a thematic issue of the "Environmental Modelling and Software" journal.

The BAW has ported its LinkableComponent GEIWrapper to Windows 64bit. The integration of a netCDF 4 reader is planned.

The EGU 2011 poster is available under http://presentations.copernicus.org/EGU2011-7904_presentation.pdf .

An OATC email address was suggested, something like oatc@openmi.org or technical@openmi.org. Standa will contact the OAEC in that question.

Extrapolation of span values

Consider the picture below, having two spans in the buffer, namely:

Span 0-1 : value 1
Span 1-2 : value 2

If asking for an extrapolated value for the span 2-3, we would expect to get the value 3 (the dashed line in the figure below). But you could also argue to return the value 2.5.

The difference between the two, is than in the former the extrapolation line is assumed to be a line through the center of the spans, while the latter assumes a line starting at the end of the last span, and having the same slope as the line through the centers.

Which to use?

Jesper will use the dashed line approach.

Next meeting

Skype meeting in principle on 15th June, 14:00 CEST, Stef has to agree.
