Collection of implementations of Hydrological Drought Indexes

Hi there, I'm Miguel [miˈɣɛɫ] 👋

I currently work at UP42 as a geospatial python engineer.

My job is to make remote sensing accessible to everyone. Interoperability and transparency with STAC, STAC API and cloud-native solutions.

In the past I worked on:

• 📡 collecting and extracting weekly water extent for thousands of dams in drought prone northeast Brazil
• ☔ a medium range drought forecasting tool and published its results on HESS

💬 Ask me about geospatial and python.

hdi's Issues

twd is made for streamflow, not reservoirs

total water deficit was made for streamflows. when applying to reservoirs, the duration should be excluded from the equation. only a normalization should be performed, the volume is in itself a sufficient index.
