=====

A Python package and extension for interacting with the Forest Vegetation Simulator.

The Forest Vegetation Simulator (FVS) growth and yield model developed by the USDA Forest Service. FVS includes a suite of regional variants, individually calibrated to predict the growth and mortality of tree species within a defined geographic area. Refer to the FVS website for documentation and supported production software packages. http://www.fs.fed.us/fmsc/fvs/

Open-FVS was established as an open source project to facilitate colaborative development and code distribution. The Open-FVS SVN repository contains both the official code base as well as development and feature branches. The official code base is maintained by staff at the Forest Management Service Center (FMSC). https://sourceforge.net/projects/open-fvs/

PyFVS is being developed to provide a Pythonic interface to the FVS model. PyFVS originated as a branch of the Open-FVS code base. Currently PyFVS exists in two forms, as a branch contained in the Open-FVS SVN repository as well as a fork hosted on GitHub. The SVN branch supports simple wrapper libraries generated with F2PY. The GitHub fork is used for development and includes a number of modifications to enhance the FVS API. There is also a Python package being developed as a high level abstraction of the FVS libaray API. The GitHub fork is periodically integrated with the SVN repository and generally tracks the trunk branch in SVN.

PyFVS is provided "as-is". There is no official support. Please submit bug reports, ideas, enhancement requests, etc. using GitHub issues.

If you would like to contribute to the effort please fork the repository on GitHub. Pull requests would gladly be considered.
