GRB to HRU Conversion
What are GRB files?
GRB is a file extension used for GRIB (GRIdded Binary), a standard of the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) for storing and exchanging weather and climate data on a regular grid. The format is widely used for forecasts from numerical weather prediction models, such as temperature, pressure, wind, humidity, and precipitation. A file of this type is a sequence of messages, and each message holds one set of values for a single parameter, level, and time, together with a description of the grid and the date of the forecast. The format exists in two main editions: GRIB1, introduced around 1990, and the newer GRIB2, which uses the .grb2 or .grib2 extensions. Data are compactly packed, so large forecast archives take little space.
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.
