FAQ
ARROWS to HRU Conversion
What are ARROWS files?
ARROWS is the file extension of the streaming variant of the Apache Arrow IPC format, which is the form of Arrow data meant to be sent from one program to another rather than stored as a finished table. A stream carries a sequence of record batches, which are pieces of a table, one after another, and a receiving program can start working on the first piece before the last one has arrived. When some columns hold geometries, the stream follows the GeoArrow specification, so that points, lines, and polygons and their coordinate system travel together with their attributes. Streams of this type are used to move large amounts of geographic features between tools or over a network, and they are sometimes saved to disk as .arrows files.
What are HRU files?
The HRU file format is a bitmap image format associated with the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT), which is a model developed through the SWAT-CUP program in Microsoft Windows. This software generates a detailed simulation model aimed to assess the result of various land management techniques in the case of large-size watersheds. HRUs represent output files containing detailed information compiled through SWAT, generally under the form of extensive tables with a large number of variables.
