Travis build status

starfit is a package that is designed to work with reservoir time series data in ResOpsUS (dataset; paper) to infer operating storage targets and release functions.

Installation

Install starfit using devtools:

devtools::install_github("IMMM-SFA/starfit")

Example - fit storage targets for Garrison Dam, North Dakota.

This example assumes that you have downloaded the ResOpsUS dataset. First, we’ll use the fit_targets() function to infer parameters of weekly storage targets for this dam (which is GRanD ID 753).

library(starfit)
fit_targets(your_path_to_ResOpsUS, dam_id = 753) -> fitted_targets
#> ℹ Fitting targets for dam 753: Garrison Dam

# take a look at the output:
str(fitted_targets)
#> List of 4
#>  $ id             : num 753
#>  $ weekly storage : tibble [1,306 × 3] (S3: tbl_df/tbl/data.frame)
#>   ..$ year   : num [1:1306] 1995 1995 1995 1995 1995 ...
#>   ..$ epiweek: num [1:1306] 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 ...
#>   ..$ s_pct  : num [1:1306] 74.1 73.3 72.9 72.5 72 ...
#>  $ NSR upper bound: num [1:5] 84.23 -3.83 -9.18 Inf 77.23
#>  $ NSR lower bound: num [1:5] 45.55 -2.8 -2.11 Inf 42.41

Here we can see that the fit_targets() function has generated a list object with four items: (1) the GRanD ID of the reservoir, (2) a table of weekly, observed storage (given as % of storage capacity), (3) flood target parameters, and (4) conservation target parameters. Fitted parameters for (3) and (4) can be converted to storage targets using convert_parameters_to_storage_targets().

fitted_targets[["NSR upper bound"]] %>% 
  convert_parameters_to_targets("flood") -> flood_targets

fitted_targets[["NSR lower bound"]] %>% 
  convert_parameters_to_targets("conservation") -> conservation_targets

Then we can combine these targets with the weekly storage data to view the inferred rule curves and verify the fit:

library(dplyr)
#> 
#> Attaching package: 'dplyr'
#> The following objects are masked from 'package:stats':
#> 
#>     filter, lag
#> The following objects are masked from 'package:base':
#> 
#>     intersect, setdiff, setequal, union
library(ggplot2)

fitted_targets[["weekly storage"]] %>% 
  left_join(flood_targets, by = "epiweek") %>% 
  left_join(conservation_targets, by = "epiweek") %>% 
  mutate(capacity = 100) %>%
  mutate(hydweek = factor(epiweek, levels = c(40:52, 1:39))) %>%
