All notable changes to this project will be documented in this page.

The format is based on Keep a Changelog, and this project adheres to Semantic Versioning.

v0.5.0 (3 August 2022)#

Added#

  • New raster method for adding gdal_compliant() attributes to xarray object.

  • Function to_datetimeindex in available preprocess functions for xr.open_dataset in the data adapter.

  • Function remove_duplicates in available preprocess functions for xr.open_dataset in the data adapter.

  • New DataCatalog.from_predefined_catalogs and DataCatalog.from_archive to support predefined data catalogs and archive in a generic way through the data/predefined_catalogs.yml file.

  • Optional formatting for year and month variables in path of data sources.

Changed#

  • splitted data_adapter.py into a data_catalog and data_adapter submodule with py scripts per adapter

  • Add rioxarray dependency to read raster data

  • In build or update methods, the setup_config component is not forced to run first anymore but according to order of the components in the ini config (opt dict).

  • In DataCatalog.get_RasterDataset & DataCatalog.get_GeoDataset methods, variables can now also be a str as well as a list of strings.

  • In DataCatalog.get_RasterDataset & DataCatalog.get_GeoDataset methods, automatic renaming of single variable datasets based on the variables argument will be deprecated

  • Interpolate missing values based on D4 neighbors of missing value cells only. This largely improves the performance without loosing accuracy. Changes have been observed when nearest method is used but this should not impact quality of the interpolation.

  • New source_names argument to DataCatalog.to_yml

Fixed#

  • Fixed DataAdapter.resolve_paths with unknown keys #121

  • Fixed the WGS84 datum in the gis_utils.utm_crs method.

  • In merge.merge the grid is now aligned with input dataset with the largest overlap if no dst_bounds & dst_res are given.

  • Fixed the predicate not being passed in get_geodataframe method.

  • Removed deprecated xr.ufuncs calls.

Deprecated#

  • Automatic renaming of single var dataset if variables is provided in get_rasterdataset. Data catalog should be used instead.

  • DataCatalog.from_artifacts. Use DataCatalog.from_predefined_catalogs instead.

v0.4.5 (16 February 2022)#

Added#

  • New skill scores: KGE 2012, KGE non-parametric (2018), KGE non-parametric flood (2018).

  • new rasterio inverse distance weighting method (“rio_idw”) in raster.interpolate_na

  • Add option to add placeholders in yml file to explode a single yml entry to multiple yml entries (useful for e.g. climate datasets).

  • general Model.setup_region method

Changed#

  • stats.py is now in stats/skills.py in order to include more and different type of new statistics later.

  • improved flw.reproject_hydrography_like and flw.dem_adjust methods

  • file handlers of loggers are replaced in Model.set_root

  • log.setuplog replaces old handlers if these exist to avoid duplicates.

  • setup_basemaps method no longer required for build method

  • improved interbasin regions in workflows.get_basin_geometry

  • drop non-serializable entries from yml file when writing data catalog to avoid it getting corrupt

  • data catalog yml entries get priority over local files or folders with the same name in the data_adapter.get_* methods multi-file rasterdatasets are only supported through the data catalog yml file

Fixed#

  • fix incorrect nodata values at valid cells from scipy.griddata method in raster.interpolate_na

Deprecated#

  • workflows.basemaps methods (hydrography and topography) moved to hydromt_wflow

v0.4.4 (19 November 2021)#

Added#

  • flw.d8_from_dem to derive a flow direction raster from a DEM

  • flw.reproject_hydrography_like to reproject flow direction raster data

  • flw.floodplain_elevation method which returns floodplain classification and hydrologically adjusted elevation

  • raster.flipud method to flip data along y-axis

  • raster.area_grid to get the raster cell areas [m2]

  • raster.density_grid to convert the values to [unit/m2]

  • gis_utils.spread2d method (wrapping its pyflwdir equivalent) to spread values on a raster

  • gis_utils.nearest and gis_utils.nearest_merge methods to merge GeoDataFrame based on proximity

  • river_width to estimate a segment average river width based on a river mask raster

  • river_depth to get segment average river depth estimates based bankfull discharge (requires pyflwdir v0.5.2)

Changed#

  • bumped hydromt-artifacts version to v0.0.6

  • In model API build and update functions, if any write* are called in the ini file (opt), the final self.write() call is skipped. This enables passing custom arguments to the write* functions without double writing files or customizing the order in which write* functions are called. If any write* function is called we assume the user manages the writing and a the global write method is skipped.

  • default GTiff lwz compression with DataCatalog.export_data method

  • rename DataAdapter.export_data to DataAdapter.to_file to avoid confusion with DataCatalog.export_data method

  • allow “alias” with attributes in DataCatalog yml files / dictionaries

Fixed#

  • DataCatalog.to_yml Path objects written as normal strings

  • Bugfix in basin_mask.get_basin_geometry when using bbox or geom arguments

  • Bugfix DataAdapter.__init__ setting None value in meta data

  • Bugfix DataAdapter.resolve_paths with argument in root

Deprecated#

  • flw.gaugemap is replaced by flw.gauge_map for a more consistent interface of flw.*map methods

  • flw.basin_shape is redundant

v0.4.3 (3 October 2021)#

Added#

  • log hydromt_data.yml with write_data_catalog (needs to be implemented in various plugins)

  • add alias option in data catalog yml files

  • use mamba for github actions

Changed#

  • generalize DataCatalog artifact kwargs to allow for multiple yml files from artifacts

  • keep geom attributes with <Dataset/DataArray>.vector.to_gdf method

Fixed#

  • Fix bug in io.open_vector and io.open_vector_from_table with WindowsPath fn

  • Fix data_libs usage from [global] section of config in cli/main.py

  • Bugfix sampling for rasters with ‘mask’ coordinate

v0.4.2 (28 July 2021)#

Noticeable changes include new import of model plugins and improvements of reading methods for tile index and geodataset.

Added#

  • Small patch for geoms/bbox regions when upscaling flow dir.

  • Mask option in merge.merge method for improved open_raster_from_tindex.

Changed#

  • New import of model plugins. Before plugins were only loaded when import MODELS or xxxModel from hydromt.models and not when importing hydromt as before.

  • Dropped dask version pins

  • read-only check in write_config; dropped write_results

  • results objects of Model API can also contain xarray.Dataset. To split a Dataset into DataArrays use the split_dataset option of set_results.

v0.4.0 (23 April 2021)#

This is the first stable release of hydroMT. Noticeable changes are the addition of the deltares-data flag, improvements with basin masking functionnalities, and the creation of examples notebooks available in the documentation and in Binder.

Added#

  • Support the use of data stored at Deltares by introducing the --deltares-data flag to the CLI and according property to the DataCatalog and Model API.

  • Added outlet_map and stream_map functions in flw.py.

  • Added mask function to raster.py for RasterDataArray and RasterDataset class.

  • Binder environment to run examples notebooks.

Changed#

  • Bump pyflwdir version and dependencies to dask, gdal, numba and netcdf.

  • Basin mask functions have been moved from models/region.py to workflows/basin_mask.py.

  • In flwdir_from_da (flw.py), the mask argument can now be a xr.DataArray and not just a boolean. The default behavior has been changed from True to None. This impacts previous use of the function.

  • In get_basin_geometry (workflows/basin_mask.py), basins geometry data are passed via basin_index argument instead of gdf_bas. GeoDataFrameAdapter are supported as well as geopandas.GeoDataFrame.

Deprecated#

  • The build-base CLI flag is deprecated since the ini file is now fully in control of each model compoenents to run.

Fixed#

  • CLI method clip.

  • Basin delineation using basin ID (basid).

  • Fixed the set_config and get_config methods of the model API in order to always try first to read available config file before editing.

Documentation#

  • Documentation moved to GitHub Pages.

  • Notebooks examples are added in the documentation.

  • Added delineate_basin notebooks to the examples.

  • Workflows documented in the API docs.

  • Update installation instructions.
