Open Source Java Earth Sciences Software

Kalypso is an open source application for geospatial modelling and simulation. It is primarily developed to be a user friendly tool for GIS-based modelling and simulation of hydrological and hydraulic numerical models.

Niche Analyst (NicheA) was developed based on the BAM framework which allows users to create virtual spaces and virtual species, and to analyze ecological niches in both multivariate environmental and geographic spaces, linking views of the niche in the two spaces. The unique functionality in NicheA, not available in other software programs, is estimating Grinnellian niches of species based on environmental variables and occurrence records, but with a clear focus on fundamental ecological niches. NicheA can display ecological niches; calculate their shape, density, location, and other attributes; and quantify similarity among multiple niches.

Cca-forum unifies the Common Component Architecture tools and tutorial. It includes the CCA specifications, the Ccaffeine framework for HPC, and related tools. These support multilanguage scientific and parallel computing.

Integration of multithread calculation and 2D/3D visualization

CPSeis is the open-source version of ConocoPhillips' former seismic processing system. Uses Fortran 90 and C/C++ layers for I/O. The new system was designed using an MPI-parallel model and works well on Linux clusters or on individual workstations.

The Wildfire Management Tool (WMT) predicts the potential fire behavior of a wildland fire. WMT incorporates a 3D terrain viewer, the tenets of the Campbell Prediction System (CPS) and the Rothermel fire spread equations to depict fire behavior. WMT is used to adjust tactics & strategies to ensure the safety of firefighters and the effective use of firefighting resources. Requires Java 8 (included) - http://www.java.com/download

The Open Modeling Interface and Environment (OpenMI) defines a standardized way to exchange data between computational models that run simultaneously. OpenMI aims to enhance process interaction representation in integrated environmental modelling.

Generic data-assimilation toolbox written in java, with native (c and fortran) libraries for high performance computing. Provides tools to couple to your own model and a wide range of algorithms, ranging from parameter calibration to Kalman filters.

JavaSeis.org: Java based software for processing and storing petroleum industry seismic data.

XNavigator is the online viewer for the OpenStreetMap Globe at http://osm-3d.org and much more. It is an interactive 3D viewer and integrated client for exploring virtual city and landscape models. A wide range of interaction and navigation possibilities makes it easy to visualize and analyze very detailed virtual urban environments. XNavigator is the first application that supports the Web3DService (W3DS) service interface.

A free Java Ternary plot which is the way to classify igneous or/and sedimentary rocks. The ternary diagrams are used to represent the relative percentages of any three component system as A, B, and C.

he JAVA library is designed to read JPL DE/LE ephemerides (DE200, DE405, DE406, DE421, DE422, DE430, DE431, DE440 and DE441) and to calculated the position and velocity of the Sun, Moon, eight major planets and Pluto, also the earth nutations and the lunar librations if they are part of the ephemeris.

A free virtual petrographic microscope application which allows users to examine and explore minerals and rocks features. jVPM makes mineralogy to be easier to examine a thin section and to understand the characteristic properties for each mineral without a petrographic microscope, which is known to be very expensive. It is mainly addressed to students as a guide in individual or supervised laboratory work.

The NJ toolbox (njTBX) is a matlab object API, built on top of Unidata's Netcdf-Java API to facilitate netCDF model data manipulation. Development of njTBX is a part of 'An Open-Source Community Model for Coastal Sediment Transport' project.

Raman Data Search and Storage (RDSS) software was developed as an analytical tool for a fast and accurate identification of unknown minerals by comparison of their spectra with the indexed library of data. A search function was implemented to enable users to find a specific peak value. Using the asterisk character (*) as a placeholder for one or more unknown peak value(s), the software will return the best match(es). Besides the search utility by the Raman band positions, which was proven to be priceless in the interpretation of Raman spectra, the RDSS software gives the user the ability to display and inspect the Raman spectra quickly and very efficiently. Users can zoom into the Raman spectrum, shift in any direction the wavenumber and the intensity axes, and if any part of the spectral display is clicked, that region will be highlighted and the specific wavenumber returned. A photo for every sample entry stored in the database is also available.

ESA Sentinel Toolbox for Earth Observation

jdwglib is a Java library for accesing DWG files. It is essentially a port from the Pythoncad DWG reading classes by Art Haas. jdwglib manages complex DWG objects allowing users to employ these objects directly in their applications.

jk3d is a java code for 3d interpolation of scattered data. jk3d uses a quality weighted ordinary Kriging method and optional an inverse distances weighting method. It has no graphical user interface and uses ASCII files to define the input.

The nofdp IDSS is an open source application for modeling flood control measures and 1D hydrodynamic flood simulation. Additional modules for ecological and spatial analysis, multicriteria evaluation and communication are included.

panFMP is a generic framework suitable for harvested XML metadata that is searchable through Apache Lucene without any additional RDBMS. Fields can be defined by XPath allowing for full text queries on all types of fields including numerical ranges. The code was moved to Github: https://github.com/pangaea-data-publisher/panfmp

User friendly LA-ICPMS data reduction software that supports solid phase and fluid inclusion work

Crawl a set of files, accumulating information on the temporal and spatial extent of the data in each file, for later search and retrieval.

APEX Tools is a collection of utilities used in conjunction with the processing of airborne hyperspectral data developed for the ESA-Prodex supported Airborne Prism EXperiment (APEX).
