BASEmesh v2.0 und BASEMENT v3.1

Dear Users of BASEMENT

We are pleased to announce the release of BASEmesh version 2.0 and BASEMENT version 3.1.0.

In BASEMENT Version 3.1.0 the bedload transport of uniform sediment has been extensively revised and supplemented (e.g. slope collapse). The new features include the transport of passive scalars and additional output variables (e.g. transport capacity or dimensionless bed shear stress). In general, extensive bug fixes were made and the documentation was revised. Since this version also includes some bug fixes, we recommend all users to update their program as well as the user manual to version 3.1. We kindly ask you to test your models with this version and give feedback if the program exhibits unexpected behavior. Changes compared to previous versions can be tracked in the release notes.

BASEmesh Version 2.0 has been completely rewritten to take advantage of new features in QGIS, such as the native mesh layer type and native 3D geometries. This redesign addresses a number of longstanding performance issues inherent in the previous implementation, especially regarding performance scaling for large projects. BASEmesh 2.0 is both a stand-alone python software as well as a plugin für QGIS. Detailed information such as release notes, a migration guide for version 2.0 and a user manual for most recent version are provided on the wiki of the BASEmesh repository.

The newest version of the software system BASEMENT is available as a free download on BASEMENT Website. (Notice: If your web browser still displays the old version, please reload the page to update its contents.)

Kind regards
The development team of BASEMENT
