In leonawicz/alfresco: R Functions For ALFRESCO Wildfire Model

alfresco

SNAPverse R package ecosystem development frozen.

Development of the SNAPverse R package ecosystem has been frozen indefinitely. This project was never directly funded. I began it out of personal interest, but no longer work for SNAP. It will remain archived here for historical reference.

R is used to manipulate and analyze data that both feed into and come out of the ALFRESCO wildfire model. The alfresco R package contains functions for working with ALFRESCO input and output data. It is a core functional package in the SNAPverse collection of R packages.

Features

The alfresco package includes functions that assist with the following analyses and processing pipelines:

• Fire events processing immediately following ALFRESCO runs
• Post-ALFRESCO run, automated Shiny app creation.
• Hierarchical data extractions from ALFRESCO run output geotiff map sets.
• Calculations for burn area ratios across multiple ALFRESCO run scenarios.
• Copying and organizing subsets of ALFRESCO outputs for consecutive model runs and in preparation for other analyses.
• Generating fire management options ratios geotiffs and related graphics.
• Generation of flexible bash and slurm scripts for processing catering to unique analysis and data processing needs.
• Data extraction and statistics by Fire Management Options (FMO) zones.
• Quickly access Alaska wildfire-related data sets like historical fire perimeters from the cloud.

This is a subset of eventual functionality. The package is under active development.

Installation

You can install alfresco from github with:
