Summary Also known as Model type Modular Model part of larger framework Note on status model Date note status model basins, Technical specs Supported platforms Linux, Mac OS, Windows Other platform Programming language Fortran77, C, Java Other program language Code optimized Single Processor Multiple processors implemented Nr of distributed processors Nr of shared processors Start year development 1997 Does model development still take place? Yes If above answer is no, provide end year model development Code development status When did you indicate the 'code development status'? Model availability As code Source code availability (Or provide future intension) Through web repository Source web address http://www.geotop.org/cgi-bin/moin.cgi/Download_GEOtop Source csdms web address Program license type Other Program license type other -- Memory requirements Dependent on DEM size Typical run time Depends on the lenght of the period simulated In/Output Describe input parameters Please see: http://www.geotop.org Input format ASCII Other input format Describe output parameters Please see: http://www.geotop.org Output format ASCII Other output format Pre-processing software needed? No Describe pre-processing software Post-processing software needed? Yes Describe post-processing software JGrass (http://www.jgrass.org) for visualizing inputs/outputs. Interface with IDL, matlab and R are also being developed. Visualization software needed? Yes If above answer is yes Other visualization software JGrass Process Describe processes represented by the model Please have a look at: http://www.slideshare.net/GEOFRAMEcafe/geotop-2008?type=powerpoint. Describe key physical parameters and equations Please give a look at http://www.geotop.org Describe length scale and resolution constraints Resolution is limited by RAM. Processes however are parametrized at a few square meter scale. Describe time scale and resolution constraints Most forcings are required at hourly scale. Integration time step is what required by numerical algorithms to converge (depends actually on processes) Describe any numerical limitations and issues Any of the processes modeling can be obviously improved. Testing Describe available calibration data sets There are few test on Rio Corda, a ten square kilometer catchment in Trentino, Italy. Simulations on Little Washita will be made available soon, too. Upload calibration data sets if available: Describe available test data sets Please look at the GEOtop website: http://www.geotop.org/cgi-bin/moin.cgi/Scientific_Articles Upload test data sets if available: Describe ideal data for testing The ideal data set is one as those of Panola catchment. Other Do you have current or future plans for collaborating with other researchers? Yes, see list-geotopdev@ing.unitn.it and the developer's website. There is also a list for users: list-geotopusers@ing.unitn.it. Information at www.geotop.org Is there a manual available? Yes Upload manual if available: Model website if any http://www.geotop.org Model forum / discussion board http://www.geotop.org/cgi-bin/moin.cgi Comments Introduction History Papers Issues Help Input Files Output Files Download Source
