Mesh can be an alternative to approximate DEM and reduce the number of points in area with little topography. There are many tools available to generate mesh: - [mesher](https://github.com/Chrismarsh/mesher) -...
The paper by [Jennings et al (2018)](https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-018-03629-7) presents a new method to compute solid vs. liquid precipitation when close the 0C. This method could be implemented in TopoPyscale.
All official WMO in-situ observation are available from: https://cds.climate.copernicus.eu/cdsapp#!/dataset/insitu-observations-surface-land?tab=overview Similarly, we could fecth NOAA Weather dataset too Add functionnalities to: - [x] download observation using spatial and temporal extents -...
The toolbox HORAYZON offers new computation scheme to derive SVF and horizon angle. It may also be capable to compute SW adjustment (atmosheric effect). Authors claim much improvement in computation...
In places close to the coast or large flat areas (below the 1000hPa) we could have the code to simply perform a horizontal interpolation based on Surface level ERA5 data....
The `topo_scale.py` routine currently works well for small project, but quickly runs into trouble when used for larger projects. The internal computation of topo_scale could be improved and re-imprelemented using...
add routine to fetch CORDEX climate data. Check compatibility with current code developped following ERA5 convention
Many interesting datasets available at [Copernicus data center](https://cds.climate.copernicus.eu/cdsapp#!/search?type=dataset) **Observation:** - https://cds.climate.copernicus.eu/cdsapp#!/dataset/insitu-observations-gruan-reference-network?tab=overview **GCMs**: - https://cds.climate.copernicus.eu/cdsapp#!/dataset/projections-cmip6?tab=form **Reanalysis**: - Arctic CARRA: [surface](https://cds.climate.copernicus.eu/cdsapp#!/dataset/reanalysis-carra-model-levels?tab=overview) and [Pressure levels](https://cds.climate.copernicus.eu/cdsapp#!/dataset/reanalysis-carra-height-levels?tab=overview) -
Write another method in the use case of toposub where the horizon value should be a value derive from the properties of the pixel falling in each cluster. Keep the...
We could implement our version of the sky view factor method using parallelizatino for the computation of all horizons (72). Original TopoCalc code avail: https://github.com/USDA-ARS-NWRC/topocalc/blob/main/topocalc/viewf.py
