Guidelines
Places+Spaces is a complex model and requires a high level of expertise for its use. The team is committed to transparency and has therefore released Places+Spaces as an open source model (note that the platform on which it runs, whatIf? Technologies’ model design tool is not open source). Even though it is open source, we expect that most users will require support for its deployment. Most users will, however, be able to download the model and by reading the guides indicated below, be able to explore the structure and equations underlying the model.
User guide
Places+Spaces is built on whatIf? Technologies’ modelling platform. Currently there is no documentation specifically on using Places+Spaces, however, whatIf? Technologies has extensive documentation on the platform that is applicable to Places+Spaces.
Open source
Places+Spaces is published under (and subject to the terms of) the Creative Commons Licence (attribution, non-commercial). As set out in this licences, the consortium of RRU, whatIf? Technologies and SSG provides no express or implied warranties concerning the model and its contents and, accordingly, those parties accept no liability arising from use of the tool or its contents.
