|| Description
||An algorithm that estimates activity hours (fishing or other) from vessels trajectories, adds bathymetry information to the table and classifies (point-by-point) fishing activity of the involved vessels according to two algorithms: one based on speed (activity_class_speed output column) and the other based on speed and bathymetry (activity_class_speed_bath output column). The algorithm produces new columns containing this information. This algorithm is based on the paper 'Deriving Fishing Monthly Effort and Caught Species' (Coro et al. 2013, in proc. of OCEANS - Bergen, 2013 MTS/IEEE). Example of input table (NAFO anonymised data): http://goo.gl/3auJkM

|| Description
||The AquaMaps model trained using a Feed Forward Neural Network. This is a method to train a generic Feed Forward Artifical Neural Network to be used by the AquaMaps Neural Network algorithm. Produces a trained neural network in the form of a compiled file which can be used later.

|| Description
||A Maximum-Entropy model for species habitat modeling, based on the implementation by Shapire et al. v 3.3.3k, Princeton University, http://www.cs.princeton.edu/schapire/maxent/. In this adaptation for the D4Science infrastructure, the software accepts a table produced by the Species Product Discovery service and a set of environmental layers in various formats (NetCDF, WFS, WCS, ASC, GeoTiff) via direct links or GeoExplorer UUIDs. The user can also establish the bounding box and the spatial resolution (in decimal deg.) of the training and the projection. The application will adapt the layers to that resolution if this is higher than the native one.The output contains: a thumbnail map of the projected model, the ROC curve, the Omission/Commission chart, a table containing the raw assigned values, a threshold to transform the table into a 0-1 probability distribution, a report of the importance of the used layers in the model, ASCII representations of the input layers to check their alignment.Other processes can be later applied to the raw values to produce a GIS map (e.g. the Statistical Manager Points-to-Map process) and results can be shared.

|-
|| Description
||An algorithm for comparing two OGC/NetCDF maps in seamless way to the user. The algorithm assesses the similarities between two geospatial maps by comparing them in a point-to-point fashion. It accepts as input the two geospatial maps (via their UUIDs in the infrastructure spatial data repository - recoverable through the Geoexplorer portlet) and some parameters affecting the comparison such as the z-index, the time index, the comparison threshold. Note: in the case of WFS layers it makes comparisons on the last feature column.
