generic-tif Geospatial Dataset

In this file, the necessary technical details of the dataset is explained.

Location of the generic-tif Dataset Files

This dataset can process any GeoTIFF file and is designed to handle those data bases without any specific structure. Current datasets that can be processed by this recipe along with their HPC locations are listed below. These paths can be used as values for the --dataset-dir argument:

# UCalgary ARC Cluster
/work/comphyd_lab/data/geospatial-data/hawaii_dem/3mDEM # High resolution Hawaii DEM
/work/comphyd_lab/data/geospatial-data/iceland_dem # High resolution Iceland DEM
/work/comphyd_lab/data/geospatial-data/baker_creek_dem # High resolution Baker Creek DEM
/work/comphyd_lab/data/geospatial-data/wolf_creek_dem # High resolution Wolf Creek DEM
/work/comphyd_lab/data/geospatial-data/marmot_creek_dem # High resolution Marmot Creek DEM
