... ALMA . ... OOF software . ... Software . ... We present a framework for modelling atmospheric phase errors and their correction by both the fast-switching and water vapour radiometeric techniques. Notable features are simulating three dimensional turbulent volumes instead of flat phase screens, considering three representative configurations of ALMA and parametrisation in terms of phase fluctuations on a 300m baseline, allowing referencing to the site-testing interferometer data. ...
