Data Processing

All data and settings that have been defined in your input data folder, have to be read into the model. For this, adopt_net0.data_management.handle_input_data.DataHandle provides a class to import and manipulate data consistent with the model.

Data Handle Class

class DataHandle

Data Handle for loading and performing operations on input data.

The Data Handle class reads in the data previously specified in the respective input data folder. It can also perform input data manipulation for two solving algorithms:

  • clustering algorithm

  • averaging algorithm

Parameters:

  • topology (dict) – Container for the topology

  • data_path (Path) – Container data_path

  • time_series (dict) – Container for all time series

  • energybalance_options (dict) – Container for energy balance options

  • technology_data (dict) – Container for technology data

  • network_data (dict) – Container for network data

  • node_locations (pd.DataFrame) – Container for node locations

  • model_config (dict) – Container for the model configuration

  • k_means_specs (dict) – Container for k-means clustering algorithm specifications

  • averaged_specs (dict) – Container for averaging algorithm specifications

  • start_period (int, None) – starting period to use, if None, the first available period is used

  • end_period (int, None) – end period to use, if None, the last available period is used

read_data()

Reads all data from folder

set_settings(data_path: Path, start_period: int = None, end_period: int = None)

Overarching function to read the data from folder structure contained in data_path

Checks the consistency of the provided folder structure and reads all required data form it, in case the input data check succeeds. In case used, it also clusters/averages the data accordingly.

The following items are read:

  • topology

  • model configuration

  • time series for all periods and nodes

  • node locations

  • energy balance options

  • technology data

  • network data

Parameters:

  • data_path (Path) – Path to read input data from

  • start_period (int | None) – Starting period of model if None, the first available period is used

  • end_period (int | None) – End period of model if None, the last available period is used
