- PEcAn Project
In addition to the interactive PEcAn web interface, the PEcAn API package is built to allow users to build the PEcAn settings object via an R script & later send this object to a PEcAn instance running either locally or remotely. The PEcAn settings object is to be sent using the RabbitMQ API to the PEcAn instance.
The prime objective of this project is to extend the PEcAn API package to achieve its full functionality. This involves leveraging the existing APIs & creating new ones as per requirement for visualization purposes & other PEcAn capabilities.
This would allow a large number of members in the community to utilize the functionalities & capabilities of the PEcAn Project directly through an R script. It would also enable developers to integrate the PEcAn project into other projects or software that rely on ecosystem modeling & related phenomena.
