VIPSLogic

Overview

VIPSLogic is the administration and business logic system of VIPS. Its main functionalities are:

Batch running of models
Caching/storing results from batch runs
Database of field pest observations
Management of organizations, users, farmer's fields, crops, pests and weather data sources
Messaging / subscription services
Web services to support VIPS's own public web pages and 3rd party clients

No models are deployed in VIPSLogic. It depends on web services from VIPSCore/VIPSCoreManager to run the models. However, for each model available in the VIPSCore/VIPSCoreManager system VIPSLogic needs a preprocessor to compile the model specific input data.

VIPSLogic is the source of data for most clients, including VIPSWeb, the standard public web page for a VIPS system.
