T.O.P.K.A.P.I. modeling suite

TOPographic Kinematic APproximation and Integration

_______________________________________________________________

Release date: 26th June 2015

TOPKAPI Modeling Suite – Release 2.2.1

PreTPK v. 02.04.00

I.TOPKAPI v. 02.15.00

TPKView v. 01.03.02

TPKMaps v. 02.04.00

TOPKAPI v. 07.01.02

What’s new:

Fixed some bugs regarding license management

The reading of header for rainfall and temperature data has been corrected. Now TOPKAPI reads headers with 12 characters instead of 6. Headers are read as “characters” even if they are numbers (0012 will be different from 12). In headers letters and spaces can be used as well.

Release date: 27th January 2015

TOPKAPI Modeling Suite – Release 2.2

PreTPK v. 02.04.00

I.TOPKAPI v. 02.15.00

TPKView v. 01.03.02

TPKMaps v. 02.04.00

TOPKAPI v. 07.01.01

What’s new:

Computation limits in TOPKAPI model have been extended (now you can build a model with up to 1’062’500 cells and maps up to 2250 rows and 2250 columns).

Computation limits in pre-processors model have been extended (now you can process maps with up to 2250 rows and 2250 columns).

File format has been changed to accomplish changes in the number of pixels. In particular file NOD ALB TRE and ROT now have a different format. Compatibility with old TOPKAPI versions has been preserved, but it is not possible to modify the drainage network in old projects (only pre-processors 3,4 and 5 grant compatibility with old versions). TOPKAPI runs fine on old projects.

In TPKVIEW it is now possible to show/hide bookmark in graphs and to modify aspect of lines and bars.

Log and Error messages for TOPKAPI and PreTPK have been updated and completed.

Documentation and manuals have been updated.

…and many other bug fixes!

Release date: 5th May 2014

TOPKAPI Modeling Suite – Release 2.1

PreTPK v. 02.04.00

I.TOPKAPI v. 02.15.00

TPKView v. 01.03.02

TPKMaps v. 02.04.00

TOPKAPI v. 06.14.08

What’s new:

Fixed some bugs regarding command “Manage Stream” in PreTPK plug-in.

Added an “Undo” command to the “Edit stream“ and “Edit Dem” windows in PreTPK plug-in: it is now possible to undo some of the changes done to the grids.

Added a “Save” command to the “Edit stream“ and “Edit Dem” windows in PreTPK plug-in: it is now possible to save to the grids when editing is finished.

Location of TOPKAPI’s pixels has been improved in the “Edit stream“ and “Edit Dem” windows in PreTPK plug-in: now when you click on one of the cells in the selection table the corresponding pixel is highlighted in the map.

Added possibility to choose between automatic and manual flow partition coefficients in PreTPK plug-in.

Added possibility to choose automatic soil and surface drainage coefficients in PreTPK plug-in.

Modified outputs in *.ts and *.its file: column “Ysnow” now contains the percentage of TOPKAPI cells that are covered with snow.

Modified outputs in *.ts and *.its file: column “Surf” now contains average amount of water on the surface of the sub-catchment (in mm).

Improved reading of rainfall and temperature data time series.

Modified header in input time series file: now having codes with 10 numeric characters (no letters)

Rainfall and temperature state file maps are now printed for the state file storing period only, just as all other state maps.

Fixed a bug on fuse identification in the solar radiation component.

Added Blaney-Criddle method for computing potential reference evapo-transpiration.

Added possibility to set Albedo values.

Added computation of shadows in mountainous areas.

Modified interpolation of point rainfall and temperature data using Inverse Squared Distance method: now it is possible to choose the number of stations to be used in interpolation and the maximum distance they can be from TOPKAPI pixel.

I.TOPKAPI visual interface has been updated to include new parameters: ISD, Blaney-Criddle, Albedo, mountains shadows, ect.

Added default values in I.TOPKAPI visual interface for temperature lapse rate and evapo-transpiration parameters.

Improved comparison of different simulations in TPKView visual interface on different time periods.

Added new functionalities to TPKView visual interface: it is now possible to display information on soil types and land covers for sub-basins and inter-basins.

TPKMaps visual interface has been improved to make time steps selection easier.
