gprMax (Q106315290)

gprMax was originally developed in 1996 by Dr Antonis Giannopoulos when numerical modelling using the FDTD method and, in general, the numerical modelling of Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) were in their infancy.

It's called gprMax from the GPR which is ground penetrating radar, and Max from Maxwell who is obviously the main father of electromagnetics in terms of the modern electromagnetic theory if we say that.

The original version of gprMax (now retired) was created in 1996 by Dr Antonis Giannopoulos in 1996. In 2015 Dr Craig Warren re-developed gprMax from scratch, which gave birth to the software in its current state. Both Antonis and Craig continue to work on, and supervise, ongoing developments to gprMax.

http://docs.gprmax.com/en/latest/input.html#input-file-commands

An input file has to be supplied to gprMax which should contain all the necessary information to run a GPR model. The input file is an ASCII text file which can be prepared with any text editor or word-processing program.

writable file format
