IDFCurves
IDFCurves.jl is a package in the Julia programming language ecosystem. It specializes in the statistical estimation of Intensity-Duration-Frequency curves. It provides exhaustive, high-performance functions by leveraging the multiple-dispatch capabilities in Julia. In particular, the package implements:
- Estimating several scaling models for IDF curves
- Performing goodness-of-fit tests for scaling models
- Modelling the dependence of maxima across durations
- Estimating the uncertainty of IDF curves
- Displaying IDF curve estimates and their uncertainty
IDFCurves.jl leverage on Extremes.jl for the analysis of extreme values.
