SIMPLE Data Preprocessor (Part 1)¶
-
class
GeoEDF.processor.
SimpleDataClean
¶ This processor preprocesses data downloaded from the U.N. FAOSTAT database to develop a database for the SIMPLE model. The CSV files downloaded from FAOSTAT are filtered and aggregated based on data products and world spatial regions.
-
fao_input_dir
(str, required)¶
This is the directory where the FAOSTAT CSV files have been downloaded to.
-
start_year
(str, required)¶
This is the start year for the data filtering.
-
end_year
(str, required)¶
This is the end year for the data filtering.
-
regsets_csv
(str, optional)¶
This is the path to a local CSV file that overrides the default set of regions to be considered for the filtering and aggregation operations.
-
cropsets_csv
(str, optional)¶
This is the path to a local CSV file that overrides the default set of crops being considered for the filtering and aggregation operations.
-
livestocksets_csv
(str, optional)¶
This is the path to a local CSV file that overrides the default set of livestock being considered for the filtering and aggregation operations.

Notes¶
- This processor only works with a fixed set of FAOSTAT datasets (LandUse, Macro-statistics Key Indicators, Population, Prices, Production Crops, and Production Livestock); you will need to develop your own processor if you intend to work with other FAOSTAT products.
- When using this processor in a workflow following the FAOInput connector, use the dir() modifier when providing an input for the fao_input_dir parameter.
