All key outputs from this pipeline are on google drive.
The following files are dependencies in pipeline #2 lake-temperature-process-models:
feature_crosswalk.rds
and .ind
lakes_sf.rds
and .ind
The following files are dependencies in pipeline #3 lake-temperature-neural-networks:
If new cooperator data is added, and you'd like to trigger a rebuild:
scmake('coop_all_files', force = TRUE)
and then scmake('6_temp_coop_fetch')
. This should download the new files that have yet to be parsed.scmake('7a_temp_coop_munge/log/7a_temp_coop_munge_tasks.ind', force = TRUE)
. This will fail if a cooperator data file does not have a parser - and will tell you which files need parsers. Add parsers to 7a_temp_coop_munge/src/data_parser
. Parser functions must match file name, or must define rules to match files to parsers in find_parsers
function here. This is useful if several files can use the same parser. If you add new scripts that contain parsers (e.g., don't add new functions to current scripts), then be sure to add the new files to the makefile sourcesscmake('7a_temp_coop_munge/log/7a_temp_coop_munge_tasks.ind')
runs successfully, final step is to run scmake('7b_temp_merge')
If any of these files are changed / updated in this pipeline, remember to:
When data (such as temperature, depth, clarity, etc) are referenced to a non-NHDHR identifier, we need to generate a new crosswalk file that shows the code how to link the site_id
(NHD high-res ID) to the other identifier (often a state agency ID). The two common ways this crosswalk is generated is by using an approximate polygon overlap to consider two lakes "the same" or using a lat/lon sampling point from a lake with a point-in-polygon analysis.
Often a state agency has a shapefile (or other) that has polygons for each lake they study, as well as attributes that include the agency ID, which we'll want to crosswalk. Commonly, this shapefile doesn't come from an easy-to-code web service, as it is either emailed to us, or downloaded from a UI that doesn't make it easy to code against. (If, however, there is a service to code against, you can skip steps 1 and 2 and go right to step 3, but write your function to access the remote data and write to sf
as .rds instead of opening a local file).
1) First, we upload the zip file that contains the raw/original data manually onto google drive to 1_crosswalk_fetch/in
and then in the console, create an indicator file for that remote dataset using gd_confirm_posted("1_crosswalk_fetch/in/{my_filename}.zip.ind")
. This only needs to be done once, and now the .ind file and the corresponding build file will appear locally and must now be checked into version control so other collaborators will have access to this information.
2) Next, we add the data_file
(1_crosswalk_fetch/in/{my_filename}.zip
) to the getters.yml
, using the format
1_crosswalk_fetch/in/{my_filename}.zip:
command: gd_get('1_crosswalk_fetch/in/{my_filename}.zip.ind')
This will allow you or others to access this dataset to help build other targets that use it.
3) Next, convert this file into an sf
object and save it as an .rds file in the 1_crosswalk_fetch.yml
, using something along the lines of
1_crosswalk_fetch/out/{stateXY_lakes}_sf.rds.ind:
command: stateXY_zip_to_sf(
out_ind = target_name,
layer = I("stateXY_Lakes"),
zip_ind = '1_crosswalk_fetch/in/{my_filename}.zip.ind')
You may need to create a custom function to do this, since each of the files seem to be different enough. This function should write a single file, which will be a MULTIPOLYGON sf
simple feature collection with only one field (other than the spatial information in geometry
), which will be site_id
. site_id
will be the data source alternative (non-NHDHR) identifier as a character. Inspect one of the existing similar targets in the repo to see this format if there is confusion (e.g., readRDS('1_crosswalk_fetch/out/LAGOS_lakes_sf.rds')
)
4) Next, add the data_file
to the getters.yml
, using the format
1_crosswalk_fetch/out/{stateXY_lakes}_sf.rds:
command: gd_get('1_crosswalk_fetch/out/{stateXY_lakes}_sf.rds.ind')
The next set of steps will cover the creation of the ID crosswalk for this dataset, 2_crosswalk_munge/out/{stateXY}_nhdhr_xwalk.rds.ind
:
5) Now, take advantage of a couple generic functions that use the standardized outputs of steps 3 & 4 to evaluate polygon overlap. The crosswalk_poly_intersect_poly()
function is the first of these functions, and has inputs for the outgoing indicator file, the two polygons needed (one for your specific new dataset, and the other as the canonical source of NHDHR lakes), and the CRS that you'd like to perform the overlap analysis in. The poly1_ID_name
argument is special - this is where you will define the site identifier naming convention for this crosswalk. This is the field/column name that will show up in the {stateXY}_nhdhr_xwalk.rds
alongside the site_id
for the NHDHR ID. I've been using uppercase letters for this argument, and it is going to be filled with the values of the alternative (non-NHDHR) identifier found in the site_id
output of step #3. Here is what that new target recipe would look like:
2_crosswalk_munge/out/{stateXY}_nhdhr_intersect.rds.ind:
command: crosswalk_poly_intersect_poly(
target_name,
poly1_ind_file = '1_crosswalk_fetch/out/{stateXY_lakes}_sf.rds.ind',
poly2_ind_file = '1_crosswalk_fetch/out/canonical_lakes_sf.rds.ind',
poly1_ID_name = I("{stateXY}_ID"),
crs=I(26915))
6) use the second generic polygon overlap function to choose a single polygon from intersected polygons from the file you just created a target for:
2_crosswalk_munge/out/mglp_nhdhr_xwalk.rds.ind:
command: choose1_poly_intersect_poly(
target_name,
intersect_ind_file = '2_crosswalk_munge/out/{stateXY}_nhdhr_intersect.rds.ind',
poly1_ID_name = I("{stateXY}_ID"))
This is broken up into two functions because the expensive analysis happens in crosswalk_poly_intersect_poly()
and if we ever want to change the selection criteria in choose1_poly_intersect_poly()
, doing so would be pretty quick. When we wrote these functions I think we thought it would be likely we'd revisit this matching criteria in the future.
7) As before, we're using a shared cache, so add both targets to getters.yml:
2_crosswalk_munge/out/{stateXY}_nhdhr_intersect.rds:
command: gd_get('2_crosswalk_munge/out/{stateXY}_nhdhr_intersect.rds.ind')
2_crosswalk_munge/out/{stateXY}_nhdhr_xwalk.rds:
command: gd_get('2_crosswalk_munge/out/{stateXY}_nhdhr_xwalk.rds.ind')
8) Add the new indicator file target from #6 to the depends of the 2_crosswalk_munge
target:
targets:
2_crosswalk_munge:
depends:
...
- 2_crosswalk_munge/out/{stateXY}_nhdhr_xwalk.rds.ind
9) Lastly, build scmake('2_crosswalk_munge')
and check the new built files (and code files) into version control and create a PR. You will now be able to use the crosswalk file to link data from this set of identifiers into the modeling system. The original file you added in step #1 1_crosswalk_fetch/in/
should already be gitignored, but make sure this doesn't show up in your commits because we don't want to check large files (or really any data files) into github.
Point-based data that contain non-NHDHR identifiers is a bit simpler to set up. Similar to vector polygon data, some datasets need to be manually uploaded to drive and indicated prior to being able to process them (steps 1 and 2 from above) and other point-based data can be directly accessed via services, such as the water quality portal monitoring locations.
Skipping ahead to step #3 above (assuming you've building an sf
object and saving it as an .rds), create a POINT simple feature collection with the required field site_id
, other optional fields (e.g., "OrganizationIdentifier", and "resultCount" are in the 1_crosswalk_fetch/out/wqp_lake_secchi_sites_sf.rds
file for diagnostic purposes), with the required geometry
as well. Creating this .rds file (assumed here as 1_crosswalk_fetch/out/{pointXY}_sf.rds
) and indicator file likely requires a custom function, see fetch_navico_points()
for a simple example.
1) After this file and the .ind in getters.yml
is created, you can move on to the generic function crosswalk_points_in_poly()
to create the crosswalk file:
2_crosswalk_munge/out/{pointXY}_nhdhr_xwalk.rds.ind:
command: crosswalk_points_in_poly(target_name,
poly_ind_file = '1_crosswalk_fetch/out/canonical_lakes_sf.rds.ind',
points_ind_file = '1_crosswalk_fetch/out/{pointXY}_sf.rds.ind',
points_ID_name = I("{POINTXY}_ID"))
As with above, the points_ID_name
is what you want to refer to the crosswalk field in future use, this is not a field that matches an existing prior name.
2) Add the indicator file(s) to getters.yml
1_crosswalk_fetch/out/{pointXY}_sf.rds:
command: gd_get('1_crosswalk_fetch/out/{pointXY}_sf.rds.ind')
2_crosswalk_munge/out/{pointXY}_nhdhr_xwalk.rds:
command: gd_get('2_crosswalk_munge/out/{pointXY}_nhdhr_xwalk.rds.ind')
3) Add the new indicator file target from #6 to the depends of the 2_crosswalk_munge
target:
targets:
2_crosswalk_munge:
depends:
...
- 2_crosswalk_munge/out/{pointXY}_nhdhr_xwalk.rds.ind
8) Lastly, build scmake('2_crosswalk_munge')
and check the new built files (and code files) into version control and create a PR. You will now be able to use the crosswalk file to link data from this set of identifiers into the modeling system.
Some targets need to be prepared here to support execution of mntoha-data-release
:
1_crosswalk_fetch/out/canonical_lakes_sf.rds
7b_temp_merge/out/temp_data_with_sources.feather
To build these targets, we need certain R packages. Here's a recipe for creating a sufficient conda environment:
conda create -n lakes_prep
source activate lakes_prep
conda install -c conda-forge r-raster r-readxl r-doMC r-leaflet r-sys r-e1071 r-class r-KernSmooth r-askpass r-classInt r-DBI r-fs r-openssl r-sf r-units r-curl r-gargle r-httr r-purrr r-uuid r-devtools r-dplyr r-tidyselect r-BH r-plogr r-optparse r-storr r-getopt r-readr r-tidyr r-feather r-lwgeom r-maps r-ncdf4 r-lubridate r-generics
R
install.packages(c('smoothr','googledrive'))
devtools::install_github('USGS-R/lakeattributes')
devtools::install_github('richfitz/remake')
devtools::install_github('USGS-R/scipiper')
install.packages(c('dataRetrieval', 'sbtools'))
In subsequent sessions, we can get going with:
ssh tallgrass.cr.usgs.gov
cd /caldera/projects/usgs/water/iidd/datasci/lake-temp/lake-temperature-model-prep
source activate lakes_prep
...but after all that, I'm stuck now on a need for Drive authentication and am just going to build locally and push back up to this repo.
gd_get('1_crosswalk_fetch/out/canonical_lakes_sf.rds.ind')
gd_get('7b_temp_merge/out/temp_data_with_sources.feather.ind')
scp 1_crosswalk_fetch/out/canonical_lakes_sf.rds tallgrass.cr.usgs.gov:/caldera/projects/usgs/water/iidd/datasci/lake-temp/lake-temperature-model-prep/1_crosswalk_fetch/out/
scp 7b_temp_merge/out/temp_data_with_sources.feather tallgrass.cr.usgs.gov:/caldera/projects/usgs/water/iidd/datasci/lake-temp/lake-temperature-model-prep/7b_temp_merge/out/
The GCM drivers data pipeline is a separate {{targets}}
pipeline within this bigger scipiper one (see 7_drivers_munge/out/7_GCM_driver_files.ind
). For the full footprint, we are running this pipeline on Tallgrass because it takes about 15 hours to complete.
Logon to Tallgrass and navigate to the lake-temperature-model-prep
directory on Caldera. From there, you can either 1) kick off a non-interactive job using the singularity container by running sbatch gcm_drivers.slurm
and then watch the progress of your build by running tail -f gcm_sing.out
, or 2) work on in an interactive RStudio session by running sbatch launch-rstudio-container.slurm
, running cat tmp/rstudio_[username].out
and then following the startup instructions (note that you may need to manually create the tmp dir by running mkdir tmp
).
Before either the interactive or non-interactive versions would work, I needed to first run googledriver::drive_auth()
in R to authorize a Google account outside of the build since targets doesn't allow any interactive inputs during its pipeline build.
