select as batch function? - Forum - iMOD
Hi Kristina,
You are correct, not all the options of the IDF Edit window are represented in an iMOD Batch function.
There are 3 remark I can make on your issue.
1. My suggestion would also be to use IDFCALC-Function. There is no function IDFSELECT or IDFEDIT. However..... I tried to test the IDFCALC function in adding the keyword GENFILE but it seems that the function does not work correctly. Therefor I placed an official issue for the iMOD development team.
> let me know if this is your experience to with IDFCALC
2. In the next release of iMOD a new function is added: IDFMATH. With this function logical operations are possible like IF((A-
* C>50.0,SQRT(C),0.0). The function only uses IDF files (no GEN files) so your GEN file must be transformed into an IDF file, e.g. by using the function CREATEIDF.
3. More and more I use Python for pre- and postprocessing. e.g. with iMOD-Python (see https://imod.xyz/).
By using Python you need to do the following actions (I might have some examples available) :
- read several IDF files into a 'data array'
- read shp/gen file and rasterize to a 'data array'
- apply a logical calculation on all of the data arrays by using the command xarray.where(...)
- save the results in an IDF file.
Hope this will help you.
Kind regards,
Frans
