TopoToolbox

TopoToolbox is a MATLAB-based software package for comprehensive topographic analysis, widely used in geomorphology and hydrology. It facilitates the processing of digital elevation models (DEMs) to understand landscape features and processes.

The project is under active development, with a strong recommendation for users to transition to TopoToolbox 3 for improved performance and access to the latest features. Its development is supported by a DFG-funded project, ensuring continuous enhancements and new releases. The platform also serves as a hub for news, including announcements like an open PhD position at the University of Potsdam focused on landslide research, climate trends, and anomalies, utilizing tools and data relevant to the TopoToolbox community. This research involves analyzing landslide catalogs, satellite imagery, and climate reanalysis data with probabilistic models.

The software is available on GitHub and encourages contributions, demonstrating its open-source nature and commitment to scientific collaboration. It's a key resource for researchers and practitioners in Earth and Environmental Sciences.
