Present Development Efforts<\/h2>\n<\/div>

VGM is under continuous development. Here are a few of the things that we’ve been working on.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Standalone Tool<\/h3>\n<\/div>
<\/span><\/div>

Presently, VGM is being distributed as an ArcGIS plugin. Work is being carried out to construct a standalone tool completely written in Python and utilizing open source libraries such as wx, GDAL, and Numpy. The standalone version of VGM will support several 2D and 3D formats for data input and output.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Custom 2D Visualization<\/h3>\n<\/div>
<\/span><\/div>

The standalone version of VGM will ship with a built-in visualizer for 2D results. The visualization not only cuts down on the time it takes from running a VGM analysis to viewing the results, but it also provides the foundation for future visualization enhancements.<\/p>\n<\/div>

3D Implementation & Visualization<\/h3>\n<\/div>
<\/span><\/div>

The Variable Grid Method is being enhanced to work on three dimensional data, greatly increasing its utility for a wider range of spatial datasets. In addition to supporting 3d data inputs and outputs in several formats, a custom visualizer will be included to assist in exploring the data in 3D.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":0,"parent":18114,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"100-width.php","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-18160","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/edx.netl.doe.gov\/sites\/offshore\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/18160","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/edx.netl.doe.gov\/sites\/offshore\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/edx.netl.doe.gov\/sites\/offshore\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/edx.netl.doe.gov\/sites\/offshore\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/edx.netl.doe.gov\/sites\/offshore\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=18160"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/edx.netl.doe.gov\/sites\/offshore\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/18160\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":18395,"href":"https:\/\/edx.netl.doe.gov\/sites\/offshore\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/18160\/revisions\/18395"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/edx.netl.doe.gov\/sites\/offshore\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/18114"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/edx.netl.doe.gov\/sites\/offshore\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=18160"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
