TopoToolbox is one of the most used geomorphology toolboxes in academia. Since 2024, Wolfgang Schwanghart has been consolidating the ecosystem into the TopoToolbox organization, moving from a MATLAB-centric stack toward a shared core engine: libtopotoolbox, with frontends in pytopotoolbox, R, QGIS, and MATLAB.
I contribute numerical methods and workflows to lib/pytopotoolbox, with emphasis on practical terrain-analysis workflows.
Install
Python install is straightforward:
pip install topotoolbox
Then:
import topotoolbox as ttb
Quickstarts
Quickstarts are compact, heavily-commented scripts designed for fast onboarding.
