Computational software for planetary science and astrobiology is vital
for understanding how complex systems interact, and for the analysis of
sparse spacecraft data. PlanetProfile is an open source framework for
modeling the interior of planetary bodies, especially ocean worlds, and
is available in Matlab. We have rebuilt PlanetProfile in Python to
improve its accessibility, as Python is free and widely used in
scientific computing. PlanetProfile features such as the calculation of
induced magnetic fields and seismic properties permit wider availability
of these important tools for research purposes. An upcoming release of
PlanetProfile contains the converted and streamlined software. New
features such as a graphical user interface are in development that will
support new users in taking advantage of these valuable tools.
