SciGRID is an open source model of the European transmission network. On the 15.06.2015 the first version (release V0.1) of SciGRID was released and the second version (release V0.2) was made available on the 20.11.2015. The third release of SciGRID (release 0.3) was made available on the 1st of August 2016 and includes a European and German dataset.
Based on Python, PostgreSQL. Using Python, PostgreSQL, Osmosis, osm2pgsql for data processing.
