Functionality of this repo

Open eweyftw opened this issue 4 years ago • 1 comments

Hey guys, I'm just going through this code and noticing, it doesn't seem to have the same functionality as what's been implemented in the UrbanSim Cloud Platform. Where can I find the files being used in the UrbanSim Cloud Platform? Are they also open source?

Also, I have found an old version of the SqFtProForma.py file and it seems to have more functionality than the file in this repo. Was this file not working? Is this urbansim repo old?

Old file was here https://github.com/UDST/developer/blob/master/developer/sqftproforma.py

Hi @eweyftw! Yes, that's right -- the functionality in this repo dates mainly from 2014-15 when UrbanSim was rewritten to take advantage of the Python data science stack.

Current models still use this library at least in part, but in combination with other more targeted repos like the Developer one. You can read more about that here: PR #218.

Generally speaking, the UrbanSim Cloud Platform modeling components are open source, but the cloud build and hosting components are not. The open source repos are all hosted in UDST.
