D-Flow FM pre-adapter

Model pre-adapter for running D-Flow FM (D-Flow Flexible Mesh) model from Delft-FEWS.

For information about the D-Flow FM model see http://oss.deltares.nl/web/delft3d/d-flow-flexible-mesh

For the D-Flow FM user manual, D-Flow FM technical reference manual and other relevant manuals, see:
http://content.oss.deltares.nl/delft3d/manuals/D-Flow_FM_User_Manual.pdf
http://content.oss.deltares.nl/delft3d/manuals/D-Flow_FM_Technical_Reference.pdf
http://content.oss.deltares.nl/delft3d/manuals/

Usage: DFlowFMPreAdapter <netcdf run file pathname relative to current working directory>

Class name: nl.deltares.dflowfm.DFlowFMPreAdapter

Properties

mdu_file

(required)

Pathname of the MDU file to update. This should be either an absolute path or a path relative to the workDir specified in the netcdf run file.

input_grid_files_to_convert(optional)

One or more pathnames of netcdf files with input grid data that should be converted. The pathnames should be separated by semi-colons (;). Each pathname should be either an absolute path or a path relative to the workDir specified in the netcdf run file.

Notes for users
  • For all files that are written by this adapter, if the file to be written already exists, then it will be overwritten.
  • This program assumes that the model always runs in time zone GMT.
  • This program writes log messages to a log file called dflowfm_pre_adapter_log.txt in the workDir specified in the netcdf run file.
  • This program uses the information in the specified netcdf run file as input and uses this information to do the following actions:

    1. Update MDU file:
      In the MDU file specified in the property "mdu_file" the following entries will be updated automatically (no tags needed):

      TStart

      Start time of the model run, in units of Tunit relative to RefDate. This uses the Tunit and RefDate that are specified in the MDU file.

      TStop

      End time of the model run, in units of Tunit relative to RefDate. This uses the Tunit and RefDate that are specified in the MDU file.

      RestartFile

      Either pathname of the input state file relative to the MDU file if the input state file is not empty (warm state start) or empty string if the input state file is an empty dummy file of 0 bytes length (cold state start) or empty string if there is no input state file at all (cold state start).

      RestartDateTime

      The restart time, this is set equal to the start time of the model run. It seems that in D-Flow FM this RestartDateTime is overruled by the timestamp in the filename of the restart file. If this causes problems, then make sure that the filename of the restart file does not contain a timestamp.

      RstInterval

      Interval (in seconds) for writing *_rst.nc restart files. RstInterval is set equal to the model run duration, so that only one output restart file is written, exactly at the end of the model run.

    2. Convert input grid time series (optional):
      The netcdf file(s) specified in the property "input_grid_files_to_convert" will be converted to files in arcinfo/curvi format. Each netcdf file will be converted to a file with the same path and name as the netcdf file but with a different extension (.amu, .amv or .amp). If the property "input_grid_files_to_convert" is not specified, then this step does nothing.
      Notes:

      • Each netcdf file should contain only one variable with grid data. If a netcdf file contains multiple variables with grid data, then an error is given. The extension of the created file depends on the name of the variable in the netcdf file as follows:

        netcdf variable nameextension
        x_wind.amu
        y_wind.amv
        air_pressure.amp
        any other namenot supported by DFlowFM (for rainfall DFlowFM can use the netcdf file directly)

        For example the original file input/x_wind.nc is converted to input/x_wind.amu

      • The format (meteo_on_equidistant_grid/meteo_on_curvilinear_grid) of each of the created files depends on whether there is an auxiliary grid file present for that file. To use an auxiliary grid file for a given netcdf file, it must have the same path and name as the netcdf file, but a different extension (.grd). If an auxiliary grid file is present, then the netcdf file will be converted to a curvi file of type meteo_on_curvilinear_grid that refers to the auxiliary grid file. Otherwise it will be converted to an arcinfo file of type meteo_on_equidistant_grid. For rectangular and curvilinear grids there must always be an auxiliary grid file present, otherwise an error is given. For regular grids no auxiliary grid file is needed.

        grid typeauxiliary grid (.grd) file neededtype of created file
        regularnoarcinfo meteo_on_equidistant_grid
        rectangularyescurvi meteo_on_curvilinear_grid
        curvilinearyescurvi meteo_on_curvilinear_grid
      • The order of the grid cell values in the arcinfo/curvi grid file created by this adapter depend on the type of grid (regular/rectangular/curvilinear). For regular grids (arcinfo meteo_on_equidistant_grid file format or curvi meteo_on_curvilinear_grid file format) the grid cells are always ordered per row from left to right, starting with the upper row of the grid. For rectangular grids (curvi meteo_on_curvilinear_grid file format) the grid cells are always ordered per row from left to right, starting with the upper row of the grid. For curvilinear grids (curvi meteo_on_curvilinear_grid file format) the grid cells are always in the same order as in the netcdf file, which depends in turn on the order of the grid cells in the corresponding grid definition in Delft-FEWS (if the file was exported from Delft-FEWS). If an auxiliary grid (.grd) file is used, then the grid cell coordinates in the .grd file must be in the same order as the grid cell values in the corresponding curvi file. The easiest way to accomplish this is to run the adapter once, then check the order of the grid cell values in the created curvi file(s), then manually make sure that the grid cell coordinates in the corresponding .grd file(s) are in the right order.

      • The coordinate system for the coordinates in an arcinfo meteo_on_equidistant_grid file created by this adapter depends on the coordinate system used in the netcdf file, which depends in turn on the coordinate system (geodatum) in the corresponding grid definition in Delft-FEWS (if the file was exported from Delft-FEWS). Need to manually make sure that this is the same coordinate system as the coordinate system used by the model.
