FAQ
GRC to HRU Conversion
What are GRC files?
GRC is the classified grid format of Vertical Mapper, a spatial analysis add-on originally created by Northwood Geoscience in Canada and later acquired by MapInfo. A file of this type is a map made of equal cells, and each cell carries a category rather than a measurement, for example a land use class, a soil type, or a signal strength range. The category names and colors are stored with the map, so it can be displayed immediately. Its numeric counterpart, the .grd file, stores smoothly varying values such as elevation. The GRC format is widely used for mobile network planning, where coverage predictions around cell towers are saved as classified grids, and it is also used in mapping, environmental analysis, and land management.
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.
