develop and share naming protocol for risk maps #8

Closed amyjsdavis closed 4 years ago

amyjsdavis commented 4 years ago

This is the file naming protocol I am proposing for the different types of maps for Belgium that will be output by the risk modelling and mapping code:

be_[GBIFtaxonKey][climate scenario]_[map type].tif (note that "be" indicates " Belgium" and the file format is always a GeoTiff)

Brackets indicate values to be assigned as follows: [GBIF_taxonKey]== GBIF taxon id corresponding to the modelled species and used in data download and occurrence data cube.

[climate scenario]== can be 1 of 4 values as shown below:

allowed climate scenario values definition
hist model based on historical climate data
rcp26 model based on climate forecasts under RCP 2.6 for 2040-2070
rcp45 model based on climate forecasts under RCP 4.5 for 2040-2071
rcp85 model based on climate forecasts under RCP 8.5 for 2040-2072

[map type]== can be 1 of 3 values (including null) as shown below:

allowed values for map types definition
null risk map
diff map of difference in risk between the RCP climate scenario risk maps and the risk map based on historical climate
conf map of confidence of predicted risk for each risk map
   

Example for Ailanthus altissima. GBIF taxon key is 3190653

be_3190653_hist.tif be_3190653_rcp26.tif be_3190653_rcp45.tif be_3190653_rcp85.tif be_3190653_rcp26_diff.tif be_3190653_rcp45_diff.tif be_3190653_rcp85_diff.tif be_3190653_hist_conf.tif be_3190653_rcp26_conf.tif be_3190653_rcp45_conf.tif be_3190653_rcp85_conf.tif

What types of risk maps are you producing? Can you name them?

peterdesmet commented 4 years ago

Great! Are we expecting other countries than Belgium? If not, can we drop the be_?

amyjsdavis commented 4 years ago

There are two reasons for the "be": 1) For maximum compatibility with other software, I prefer not to name files beginning with a number; and 2) I will eventually be placing risk maps on Zenodo for all of Europe. These will be prefixed with "eu". On Thu, Jan 30, 2020 at 6:37 PM Peter Desmet notifications@github.com wrote:

Sounds good, closing this issue. If you upload an example (#7) than @niconoe can prototype this.
