Release v0.9.0 · Deltares/hydromt

This release contains several new features, here we highlight a few:

Support in the DataCatalog for data sources from different providers or versions with better support for cloud and http data.
Developers documentation to start your own plugin and accompanying template.
Support multigrids in meshmodel (with example) and improved implementation VectorModel (was LumpedModel)
Support for reading overviews (zoom levels) of Cloud Optimized GeoTIFFs (COGs).

Added

Support for loading the same data source but from different providers (e.g., local & aws) and versions (PR #438)
Add support for reading and writing tabular data in parquet format. (PR #445)
Add support for reading model configs in TOML format. (PR #444)
add open_mfcsv function in io module for combining multiple CSV files into one dataset. (PR #486)
Adapters can now clip data that is passed through a python object the same way as through the data catalog. (PR #481)
Relevant data adapters now have functionality for reporting and detecting the spatial and temporal extent they cover (PR #503)
Data catalogs have a hydromt_version meta key that is used to determine compatibility between the catalog and the installed hydromt version. (PR #506)
Allow the root of a data catalog to point to an archive, this will be extracted to the ~/.hydromt_data folder. (PR #512)
Support for reading overviews from (Cloud Optimized) GeoTIFFs using the zoom_level argument of DataCatalog.get_rasterdataset. (PR #514)
Support for http and other filesystems in path of data source (PR #515).

new force-overwrite option in hydromt update CLI to force overwritting updated netcdf files. (PR #460)
Model objects now have a _MODEL_VERSION attribute that plugins can use for compatibility purposes (PR # 495)
set_forcing can now add pandas.DataFrame object to forcing. (PR #534)

Model class now has methods for getting, setting, reading and writing arbitrary tabular data. (PR #502)
Support for writing overviews to (Cloud Optimized) GeoTIFFs in the raster.to_raster method. (PR #514)
New raster method to_slippy_tiles: tiling of a raster dataset according to the slippy tile structure for e.g., webviewers (PR #440).

Updated MeshModel and related methods to support multigrids instead of one single 2D grid. (PR #412)
Renamed LumpedModel.response_units to VectorModel.vector and updated the base set, read, write methods. (#531)
possibility to load the data in the model read_ functions for netcdf files (default for read_grid in r+ mode). (PR #460)
Internal model components (e.g. Models._maps, GridModel._grid``) are now initialized with None and should not be accessed directly, call the corresponding model property (e.g. Model.maps, GridModel.grid`) instead. (PR #473)
setup_mesh2d_from_rasterdataset and setup_mesh2d_from_raster_reclass now use xugrid Regridder methods. (PR #535)
Use the Model.data_catalog to read the model region if defined by a geom or grid. (PR #479)

vector.GeoDataset.from_gdf can use the gdf columns as data_vars instead of external xarray. (PR #412)

when a model component (eg maps, forcing, grid) is updated using the set_ methods, it will first be read to avoid loosing data. (PR #460)
open_geodataset with driver vector also works for other geometry type than points. (PR #509)
overwrite model in update mode. (PR #534)
fix stats.extremes methods for (dask) 3D arrays. (PR #505)
raster gives better error on incompatible nodata (PR #544)

the dependencies pcraster and pygeos are no longer used and were removed. (PR #467)
