In picasa/rsunflo: Tools for phenotyping, simulating and modelling with the SUNFLO crop model

rsunflo

Tools for phenotyping, simulating and modelling with the SUNFLO crop model [1,2]. Convenience and utility functions for personal use. Not to be published anywhere.

A set of tools for working with the SUNFLO crop model at different steps. input data: computing genotype-specific parameters and creating climatic input files. simulation: designing virtual experiments and multi-simulation in R or web service interface. * modeling: tracking the variation of prediction capacity along with model development.

Documentation:

• model manual: graphic documentation of the sunflo algorithm (pdf)
• user manual: description of the workflow for simulation and model parameterization (pdf, in French)
• example: simulate a basic design of experiments (rmarkdown)

Installation

To run simulations with the SUNFLO crop model and this R package, two softwares (VLE and R) and two packages (sunflo and rsunflo) need to be installed.

1. install the VLE simulation platform : VLE project github or website and RVLE R package github

2. install the SUNFLO crop model for VLE simulation platform : RECORD project model library

3. install the development version of rsunflo or clone the rsunflo repository

# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("picasa/rsunflo")
