HySetter: Hyroclimate Data Subsetter based on HyRiver#

Features#

HySetter is an open-source Python package, built on HyRiver software stack, that provides a command-line interface (CLI) for subsetting hydroclimate data from the following data sources over conterminous United States (CONUS):

• Area Of Interest: From any HUC level, GAGES-II basins, NHDPlusV2 catchments and their attributes (StreamCat and NLDI), or a user-defined GeoDataFrame
• Drainage Network: From NHDPlusV2
• Forcing: From Daymet, GridMET, or NLDAS2
• Streamflow: From NWIS
• Soil: From gNATSGO, or SoilGrids
• Topography: From 3DEP
• Dam: From NID
• Land Use/Land Cover, Canopy, Imperviousness, and Urban Descriptor: From MRLC

Installation#

You can install hysetter using pip:

pip install hysetter

Alternatively, hysetter can be installed from the conda-forge repository using micromamba:

micromamba install -c conda-forge hysetter

Quick start#

Once HySetter is installed, you can use the CLI to subset hydroclimate data via a configuration file. The configuration file is a YAML file that specifies the data source, the area of interest (AOI), and the output directory. You can find an example configuration file in the config_demo.yml.
