Example Instantiation for Bow River at Calgary

This example demonstrates how to use MESHFlow with the provided example datasets. The workflow uses the Python API and data files included in the examples/ directory.

Folders and Files Used:

  • examples/example-setup-python/meshflow_bow_at_calgary.ipynb: Jupyter

    notebook with a step-by-step example.

  • examples/bow-at-calgary-attributes/: Contains landcover and attribute

    CSV files.

  • examples/bow-at-calgary-forcings/: Contains NetCDF files with

    meteorological forcing data.

  • examples/bow-at-calgary-shapefiles/: Contains shapefiles for rivers

    and subbasins.

Quick Start (Python):

  1. Open the notebook

    examples/example-setup-python/meshflow_bow_at_calgary.ipynb in Jupyter or VS Code.

  2. Follow the cells to:

    • Load the required packages and MESHFlow.

    • Set up paths to the example data files.

    • Load attribute, forcing, and shapefile data.

    • Run MESHFlow processing steps.

    • Inspect and visualize results.

Example Data Overview:

  • Attributes: bcalgary_NA_NALCMS_landcover_2020_30m.tif (landcover

    raster), bcalgary_stats_NA_NALCMS_landcover_2020_30m.csv (attribute table)

  • Forcings: averaged_remapped_bcalgary_*.nc (NetCDF files with

    meteorological data)

  • Shapefiles: bcalgary_rivers.*, bcalgary_subbasins.* (vector data

    for rivers and subbasins)
