A Python library for building Conceptual Distributed Model
Hapi
Hapi is an open-source Python Framework for building raster-based conceptual distributed hydrological models using HBV96 lumped model & Muskingum routing method at a catchment scale, Hapi gives a high degree of flexibility to all components of the model (spatial discretization – cell size, temporal resolution, parameterization approaches and calibration).
Main Features
- Modified version of HBV96 hydrological model (Bergström, 1992) with 15 parameters in case of considering
snow processes, and 10 parameters without snow, in addition to 2 parameters of Muskingum routing method - Remote sensing module to download the meteorological inputs required for the hydrologic model simulation (ECMWF)
- GIS modules to enable the modeler to fully prepare the meteorological inputs and do all the preprocessing
needed to build the model (align rasters with the DEM), in addition
