Running GeoCARET

GeoCARET can be run as a Python package (standard) or as a Docker image (optional - see About Docker for a short description of what Docker is) depending on the chosen installation option - see Installation Guidelines.

Running GeoCARET requires a valid input file. To find out about the input file specification, please refer to Preparing Inputs.

Attention

Currently, GeoCARET serves a single purpose: sourcing input data for GHG emission estimation using our software, RE-Emission. Consequently, GeoCARET has a single run command and relies on an input data file formatted specifically for this single application. We are in the process of refactoring and reformulating GeoCARET into a more versatile and generic tool for reservoir and catchment analysis. This expansion means GeoCARET will support more analysis options, offer additional run commands, and allow users to create their own input files and specifications.

For detailed instructions how to run GeoCARET as a Python package and/or as a Docker image, navigate to Running the GeoCARET Script and Running the GeoCARET Docker Container, respectively.
