Rockfall simulation software
Project description
Description
PlatRock is a multi-model software for the numericla simulation of rockfalls. This scientific tool implements rock propagation algorithms on 2D and 3D terrain and gives statistical data about resulting trajectories.
Prerequisites
At the moment PlatRock is only tested on debian-based platform unix distros. Prior to PlatRock installation, please check that the following dependencies are satisfied.
- python >= 3.6, which is the default on modern linux distros ;
- gdal (which can be installed on debian-based systems with
sudo apt install gdal-bin
).
All other dependencies should be automatically installed by pip.
Installation
After the prerequisites check, simply run
pip3 install --upgrade platrock
You can also try the development version with (install git with sudo apt install git
first) :
pip3 install --upgrade git+https://gitlab.com/platrock/platrock.git@dev
Examples
Examples for all PlatRock simulation models are available on PlatRock gitlab.
Source code
The source code of platrock is also available on the gitlab repository. The master branch fits the version that is hosted on pypi.
Licence
PlatRock is licenced under the GNU General Public License v3 (GPLv3).
