Open Source Wireless Optimisation Platform for FREE

Have anyone heard more of this tool or worked with ?
BR,

An alpha release of AWE is available for download with the following applications

* Distribution Analayis
* Re-Use Analyser
* Delta Report
* Consistency Check
* Network Explorer
* Network Visualiser
* Network Editor
* Star Analysis
* TEMS 'Support

The application Distribution Analysis allows for calculation of the the distribution of a particular network element, parameter or counter. Re-use Analyser is used to show the usage of a configuration, element or parameter in the network such as frequency re-use, PN-code re-use, etc.

Delta Report is an application that determines the differences between networks, sites, sectors, configurations and parameter settings. The Consistency Check application uses the Delta Report to determine the difference between a planned and implemented network or differences on various site/cell/parameter databases.

The most basic functionality is the Network Explorer where it shows the network elements in a tree view just like in Windows Explorer. While the application Network Visualiser displays the network elements on a map, much like with MapInfo. Users can Edit network components and properties up to parameter level with the Network Editor application.

The application Star Analysis is used to correlate relationships between sectors and parameters visually on the map display.

Analysis of TEMS scanner information is incorporated in the Distribution Analysis.

IMPORTANT :
The 'alpha' release of AWE is best downloaded from the open source projects ftp server 'ftp.amanzi.org'
using the username 'awe' and password 'Explore88'.
If you use your browser as an ftp client, try click on ftp://awe@ftp.amanzi.org/Installers

RUNNING AWE:
User guides are not yet produced for running AWE, so will provide initial basic information here . The shortest route to getting started is to:

* Watch some of the Videos made of some AWE features
* Download AWE
* Extract the ZIP into an appropriate directory, for example C:\Program Files\Amanzi\AWE-0.7.0
* Run the awe.exe found in that directory (or make a shortcut on your desktop or menu)
* Add mapping data using the 'Add Layer' toolbar or menu items
* Import network site data, neighbour lists and drive test data using the two AWE import toolbar buttons, or the main menu 'File->Import->Amanzi Data'
* Browse the map view using the toolbar tools for panning and zooming. Also look at the layers view, and use context menu options like 'zoom to layer' or 'change style'
* Browse the network tree view, try double click on network elements to get the map to pan to that object, as well as open the 'database graph' view showing that objects relationship to other objects
* Try the 'Distribution' analysis by clicking on the 'Distribution' tab in the views at the bottom of the window, and selecting a dataset to analyse and the property to analyse. Select bars in the chart to show which objects in the map have the selected properties.
* Try the 'Neighbour' analysis by selecting elements in the tree view and choosing the 'Analyse Neighbours' context menu. This will populate the 'Neighbours' view with the selected elements, and you can show them on the map by double-clicking on the server or neighbour names.
* Try the 'Star Analysis' by selecting the star toolbar icon. Then select sectors on the map. Note that this analysis requires an existing network analysis in the 'distribution' view.
* Try the 'Drive Inquirer', by selecting the 'Drive' view and analysing specific drive properties. note this is only available in late 0.7.x versions, or above

Hi!

Looks interesting, www site promissing.
Has anyone here tried it? Any user comments?

Is AWE itself open source, or it just uses other open source products?
Is there some community around it?

(I checked AmazniTel site, but I am not quite confident on jumping into trial).
