GitHub - joedborg/openpiv-python: OpenPIV is an open source Particle Image Velocimetry analysis software written in Python, Matlab and C++

Warning

The OpenPIV python version is currently in its alpha version. This means that it is still buggy, untested and the API may change. However testing and contributing is very welcome, especially if you can contribute with new algorithms and features.

Development is currently done on a Linux/Mac OSX environment, but as soon as possible Windows will be tested. If you have access to one of these platforms please test the code.

OpenPIV consists in a python module for scripting and executing the analysis of a set of PIV image pairs. In addition, a Qt graphical user interface is in development, to ease the use for those users who don't have python skills.

Install

Installation instructions for various platforms can be found at http://openpiv.readthedocs.org

Using distutils create a local (in the same directory) compilation of the Cython files:
