Home R&D platform Develop Plugins
Fast-track development platform
Universities, E&P companies, 3rd party vendors , and of course dGB Earth Sciences use OpendTect to develop plugins for added functionality. These plugins can be open source, commercial or proprietary plugins
Advantages of developing in OpendTect

- R&D can focus on algorithms rather than ‘side topics’ like visualization, data handling and user interface issues

- OpendTect is an innovative and advanced open source environment

- OpendTect is an inexpensive and a constantly growing system

- OpendTect streamlines research at E&P companies, since it replaces a multitude of formats and separate programs, that are now hampering progress. OpendTect functions as an umbrella, bringing everything together, hence securing continuity

- 3rd party vendors use OpendTect since it is quickly becoming a standard at E&P companies, making niche products easier to sell.

- Quick support and excellent training ( This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it and This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it )

Programming

OpendTect is a software system written in C++. Internally, OpendTect almost exclusively uses open source tools, and it is built using the 'open' GNU C/C++ compiler. For the standard user interface TrollTech's Qt library is used. 3D graphics and manipulation are provided by the 'Open' OpenInventor implementation COIN from SIM. Other tools include MIT's FFTW and ARK CLS's Ideal workstation access
