Required Datasets

SABER requires GIS Datasets and Hydrological Datasets.

These datasets need to be prepared independently before using saber-hbc functions. You should organize the datasets in a working directory that contains 3 subdirectories, as shown below. SABER will expect your inputs to be in the tables directory with the correct names and will generate many files to populate the gis and clusters directories.

Example project directory structure:

tables/
    # This directory contains all the input datasets
    drain_table.parquet
    gauge_table.parquet
    model_id_list.parquet
    hindcast_series.parquet
    hindcast_fdc.parquet
    hindcast_fdc_transformed.parquet
clusters/
    # this directory contains outputs from the SABER commands
    ... 
gis/
    # this directory contains outputs from the SABER commands
    ...
