More information about GLEON compute technology development can be found at the GLEON Cyber-enabled Discovery and Innovation (GLEON CDI) web site: http://CDI.GLEON.org .

Applied Technology

Lake Analyzer
Lake Analyzer is a set of tools developed by GLEON members that allows users to calculate common metrics for lake physical states, such as Lake Number, Schmidt stability and Wedderburn number. All source code (Matlab), as well executables, are freely available and open source.

VegA Data EditoR (VADER)

VADER is a java application designed to very quickly and efficiently retrieve large amounts of layerhigh-resolution sensor data. Its functionality is similar to dbBadger but should have much improved query times.

dbBadger
dbBadger retrieves and temporally synchronizes data from the Vega datamodel. It includes functionality to output unsynchronized data, temporally synchronized data, interpolated data, and time-weighted aggregated data.

Vega
Vega is a tool for viewing graphed data from Vega grouped by site. It is primarily utilized for manual tech monitoring of sampled variables. All available hi-res streams are plotted. Note: Hi-res water-temp profiles for some sites can be slow to render as they represent a high number of datapoints (over 200,000 from Mendota Buoy). This tool is built upon vegaPlot, described below.

Controlled Vocabulary
Controlled Vocabulary (XLS) is a list of terms to use when searching the GLEON database.

Now Casting
*Now Casting is a nearly real-time buoy obervation and model prediution, nowcasting, was created at the subtropical, alpine lake, Yuan Yang Lake (YYL), in the northern Taiwan by several research groups.  The primary purpose of the nowcasting is to do monitoring YYL physical and partly chemical dynamics in the termporal and spatial variations.

Working Groups
On the Ecosystem Modelling site you will be able to keep updated on the latest developments within the modelling field, look up contact persons using (and in some cases developing) specific models, and find some useful documentation on ecosystem modelling.
