Imports coverage scalar data from iMOD IPF files. |

Imported Columns
IPF files must have at least one of the following two columns:
- an X-COORDINATE and Y-COORDINATE columns, AND/OR
- a LOCATION-ID column
. Optionally, it can have a column for the z coordinate: Z-COORDINATE and the location ID: LOCATION-ID. These names are case insensitive.
Because the actual data that will be imported is time series data, a file column must also be present. Its name is irrelevant, because it is specified by index in the IPF file (where 1 is the first column). The importer will not crash if no file column is present, but of course no time series data will be imported.
...
For each record in the IPF file, a point geometry will be created.
Missing values
In the time series files, for each column a missing value should be specified. Note that FEWS cannot handle column specific missing values. It will use all missing values for all columns. For example, in the following file:
| Code Block |
|---|
3
3,1
date, -999
measurement1, -999
measurement2, 100
20130515 200 -400
20130516 100 -500
20130517 50 -600
|
the value 100 in the second column will be incorrectly marked as missing.
