Importing/exporting structure (data) in GroIMP

Hi all,

I am currently working on performing a sensitivity analysis on a cucumber FSPM model. I want to export the structure of the simulated plants including leaves after a certain time period. So that I can import that structure to start the SA from that simulation time onwards. Since the first part of the simulation is not important for the SA, but still requires a lot of time and computing power.
Does anyone know how to export and import structures in GroIMP, or where I can find this information?

Thanks in advance,
Gijs

Hello Gijs,

Sorry for the slow answer.
You can try using the XEG file format. If you export the plant as a xeg, you can then, import the xeg in a new project.
Notice that:

  • It will work better if the new project contains the custom module definitions when importing the file.
  • Unfortunately the xeg format is still work in progress and some features are missing, e.g., the instantiation rules are not supported (and will be ignored if you have not defined the custom modules in the new project).
  • You should try the latest groimp release (2.1.2) as I solve some of the old issues of xeg files.

Best,
Gaetan
