Virtual Riesling a GroIMP Model of Vitis Vinifera L.

This repository contains the development version for the functional-structural plant model Virtual Riesling to be executed in GroIMP (Growth Grammar-related Interactive Modelling Platform).

Getting Started

Before you clone the repository, make sure that you have GroIMP (v1.5/1.6) installed on your computer. You can download GroIMP from the official website: <https://wwwuser.gwdg.de/~groimp/ grogra.de/software/groimp/index.html> or https://gitlab.com/grogra/groimp

To be able run the model, please contact us for additional installation instructions.

For Post-Processing you will need recent versions of R (>v.4.3) and RStudio (recommended, >v.2023.12.1 Build 402).

Cloning the Repository

To clone the repository, use the following Git command: "git clone https://github.com/dschmidt-hgu/ViRi-dev.git"

Extract the folders in ViRi_Input/Cluster_Folders.zip into ViRi_Input to fill the respective empty folders (Folder_1, ..., Folder_12).

Running the Model

  • Open GroIMP
  • Navigate to File > Open
  • Select the ViRi.gs file in the folder ViRi_dev
  • Follow the more detailed example instructions below

Funding

The model development has been partialy funded by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG, German Research Foundation), project numbers 449374897 and 432888308.

Manual example simulation setup

Simulation

1. Open GroImp

2. Open ViRi.gs File in ViRi_dev

3. Set paths in Globals.rgg

static final String inputPath = 
"/full/path/to/ViRi_Input/";

static final String outputPath =
"/full/path/to/ViRi_Output/";

4. Change 3 lines of code in main_develop.rgg

to:

const boolean compass = false;  

const boolean transOn = true;   

//enableView3DRepaint();

... save these changes to disable visualiztaion during simulation

5. Press button loopSim

Post-Processing

1. ViRi_Output

  • Simulation produces 5 files in ViRi_Output
  • Sunburn Post-Processing relies on:
    • Berries_Minutes_
    • Leaves_Minutes_

2. Go to folder ViRi_Post_Processing

  • launch data_processing.Rproj to get to RStudio
  • run script process_ViRi_output.R

w/o RStudio

  • run script process_ViRi_output.R in terminal mode
    • Rscript process_ViRi_output.R

Optional settings to change scenario in main_develop.rgg

  • rowOrientation: activate scene view (enableView3DRepaint(); and const boolean transOn = false;) and compass (const boolean compass = true;) to see orientation and cane growth direction
  • defoliateOnSide: left=left side of cane growth direction; right=right side of cane growth direction
  • defoliateAbove: leaf removal above z (height above ground)
  • defoliateBelow: leaf removal below z (height above ground)
