Before we begin, let us say that we will be speaking from a transportation modelling perspective, but there is no reason why this would not be true for other fields that rely heavily on (proprietary) software. Now back to the topic at hand. The origin of our concerns There are many things in transportation modelling […]
It was around the time I separated the Python package from the QGIS plugin and started making AequilibraE a more serious software effort with unit tests, continuous integration, and documentation that I decided that I would eventually have to develop a more consistent API for AequilibraE. That evolution, allied TranspoNET (HOW THE HELL HAVE I FAILED […]
It has been nearly 4.5 years since I published my idea on making desire lines using Delaunay Triangles on this blog, over 3.5 years I launched AequilibraE and about 2 years since I incorporated Delaunay Lines into AequilibraE (and made it actually usable). I have presented this concept in conferences (ATRF, TRB Modeling Aplications, and […]
About a month ago I went to San Francisco Bay Area to present AequilibraE at the FOSS4G North America convention, which is the largest Open Source GIS event in the US. It is a very interesting conference, and much different from the transportation engineering/planning conferences I usually go to. The nice thing of being in […]
