OpenET - DisALEXI

This repository provides an Earth Engine Python API based implementation of the DisALEXI ET model.

Examples

Jupyter notebooks are provided in the "examples" folder that show various approaches for calling the OpenET DisALEXI model.

Installation

The OpenET DisALEXI python module can be installed via pip:

pip install openet-disalexi

Dependencies

Modules needed to run the model:

• earthengine-api
• openet

OpenET Namespace Package

Each OpenET model should be stored in the "openet" folder (namespace). The benefit of the namespace package is that each ET model can be tracked in separate repositories but called as a "dot" submodule of the main openet module,

import openet.disalexi as disalexi
