Welcome to the W2 wiki!

The goal of the W2 project is to take migrate the existing "CE-QUAL-W2: A Two-Dimensional, Laterally Averaged, Hydrodynamic and Water Quality Model" to an open web-based solution. Presently this project exists as a Win32 and Win64 fortran (F90) application that also included a VB interface.

The project will be migrated in several phases.

The first phase will emulate UI interfaces from the 3.71 version of the product as a jquery/php based website. This interface will then run the model on as a server-based application using the command line interface to the model.

The second phase will be implemented over time and will eventually migrate all of the F90 functions to javascript and to the client so that a user may construct and run the model locally without requiring any software installation.

The third phase will be to enhance the user experience and output so that the model can both be extended by third parties and used by mere-mortals. This model could and should be a great teaching tool but right now is too arcane for the lay user.

-- Update-- I have uploaded the pdx version and the initial files for the web interface. I will be working on the web interface definition file based upon the resource files from the pdx gui. Until this has been updated the web interface will not work at all.
