# TopoPyScale
Pure Python version of Toposcale packaged as a Pypi library. Toposcale is an original idea of Joel Fiddes to perform topography-based downscaling of climate data to the hillslope scale.

Documentation avalaible (in construction): https://topopyscale.readthedocs.io

Kristoffer Aalstad has a Matlab implementation: https://github.com/krisaalstad/TopoLAB

## Contribution Workflow
**Please follow these simple rules:**
1. a bug -> fix it! 
2. an idea or a bug you cannot fix? -> create a new [issue](https://github.com/ArcticSnow/TopoPyScale/issues) if none doesn't already exist. If one exist, then add material to tit.
3. wanna develop a new feature/idea? -> create a new branch. Do the development. Merge with main branch when accomplished.
4. Create release version when significant improvements and bug fixes have been done. Coordinate with others

**Create a new release:**
Follow procedure and conventions described in: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ob9llA_QhQY

## TODO

- class `topoclass`:
    - [ ] implement routine to fecth DEM automatically from ArcticDEM/ASTER
    - [ ] add plotting routines.
- `topo_sub.py`:
  - [ ] look into alternative clustering method DBscan
  - [ ] write download routine for CORDEX climate projection
- `topo_scale.py`:
    - [ ] try to rewrite function to skip for loop using the power of zarray
    - [ ] check against previous implementation of TopoScale
- **Documentation**:
  - [ ] describe `config.ini` variables
  - [ ] short description of `topoclass` structure
  - [ ] example of downscaling without `topoclass` 
  - [ ] write about about available forcing datasets

## Design

1. Inputs
    - Climate data from reanalysis (ERA5, etc)
    - Climate data from future projections (CORDEX) (not avail.)
    - DEM from local source, or fetch from public repository: SRTM, ArcticDEM, ASTER
2. Run TopoScale
    - compute derived values (from DEM)
    - toposcale (k-mean clustering)
    - interpolation (bilinear, inverse square dist.)
3. Output
    - Cryogrid format
    - FSM format
    - CROCUS format
    - Snowmodel format
    - basic netcfd
    - For each method, have the choice to output either the abstract cluster points, or the gridded product after interpolation
4. Validation toolset
    - validation to local observation timeseries
    - plotting
5. Gap filling algorithm
    - random forest temporal gap filling

Validation (4) and Gap filling (4) are future implementation.

## Installation

```bash
conda install mamba -n base -c conda-forge
mamba create -n downscaling ipython numpy pandas xarray matplotlib netcdf4 ipykernel scikit-learn rasterio gdal pyproj
conda activate downscaling
pip install cdsapi
pip install h5netcdf
pip install topocalc
pip install pvlib
pip install elevation
pip install configobj
pip install lazydocs

cd github  # navigate to where you want to clone TopoPyScale
git clone git@github.com:ArcticSnow/TopoPyScale.git
pip install -e TopoPyScale    #install a development version

#----------------------------------------------------------
#            OPTIONAL: if using jupyter lab
# add this new Python kernel to your jupyter lab PATH
python -m ipykernel install --user --name downscaling
```

Then you need to setup your `cdsapi` with the Copernicus API key system. Follow [this tutorial](https://cds.climate.copernicus.eu/api-how-to#install-the-cds-api-key) after creating an account with [Copernicus](https://cds.climate.copernicus.eu/). On Linux, create a file `nano ~/.cdsapirc` with inside:

```
url: https://cds.climate.copernicus.eu/api/v2
key: {uid}:{api-key}
```

## Basic usage

1. Setup your Python environment
2. Create your project directory
3. Configure the file `config.ini` to fit your problem (see [`config.ini`](https://github.com/ArcticSnow/TopoPyScale/blob/main/TopoPyScale/config.ini) for an example)
4. Run TopoPyScale

```python
import pandas as pd
from TopoPyScale import topoclass as tc
from matplotlib import pyplot as plt

# ========= STEP 1 ==========
# Load Configuration
config_file = './config.ini'
mp = tc.Topoclass(config_file)
# Compute parameters of the DEM (slope, aspect, sky view factor)
mp.compute_dem_param()

# ========== STEP 2 ===========
# Extract DEM parameters for points of interest (centroids or physical points)

mp.extract_topo_param()

# ----- Option 1:
# Compute clustering of the input DEM and extract cluster centroids
#mp.extract_dem_cluster_param()
# plot clusters
#mp.toposub.plot_clusters_map()
# plot sky view factor
#mp.toposub.plot_clusters_map(var='svf', cmap=plt.cm.viridis)

# ------ Option 2:
# inidicate in the config file the .csv file containing a list of point coordinates (!!! must same coordinate system as DEM !!!)
#mp.extract_pts_param(method='linear',index_col=0)

# ========= STEP 3 ==========
# compute solar geometry and horizon angles
mp.compute_solar_geometry()
mp.compute_horizon()

# ========= STEP 4 ==========
# Perform the downscaling
mp.downscale_climate()

# ========= STEP 5 ==========
# explore the downscaled dataset. For instance the temperature difference between each point and the first one
(mp.downscaled_pts.t-mp.downscaled_pts.t.isel(point_id=0)).plot()
plt.show()

# ========= STEP 6 ==========
# Export output to desired format
mp.to_netcdf()
```

TopoClass will create a file structure in the project folder (see below). TopoPyScale assumes you have a DEM in GeoTiFF, and a set of climate data in netcdf (following ERA5 variable conventions). 
TopoPyScale can easier segment the DEM using clustering (e.g. K-mean), or a list of predefined point coordinates in `pts_list.csv` can be provided. Make sure all parameters in `config.ini` are correct.
