Develop your skills in topographic analysis in this two-part webinar series, developed by EGU's Geomorphology Division. During this webinar, attendees will learn how to address scientific problems by using TopoToolbox, an open-source platform for experimentation in quantitative geomorphology.  Across the two webinars, you will learn about the functionalities of TopoToolbox 3 and how it can be integrated into MATLAB and Python data analysis and modelling workflows. Hands-on programming activities will help participants get started with the MATLAB and Python interfaces. We will also demonstrate how simulation tools such as GraphFlood for flood simulation and MinVoellmy for landslide simulation can be run from TopoToolbox, and how TopoToolbox can interface with Landlab.

TopoToolbox is developed openly on GitHub, and we would be glad for this webinar to also serve as an opportunity to discuss how the community can get involved in its ongoing development. More broadly, the event aims to present the new functionalities of TopoToolbox across different environments, show how users can contribute, explore what the community needs and expects, and bring users and developers together.

Speaker

Wolfgang Schwanghart (University of Potsdam, Germany) - Wolfgang is a geomorphologist at the University of Potsdam and the main developer of TopoToolbox. He studies Earth surface processes and their interactions with mountain environments across different time and spatial scales, combining digital terrain analysis, GIS, landscape evolution modelling, statistics, machine learning, and field-based geomorphology.
