Some bugs about file path after RGI dataset updated from v6 to v7

[Dongdong001122]

There is some error when I run the OGGM workflow after inputting the RGI version 7. For example, get_filepath("dem") went error during to dem.tif file saved as /tmp/OGGM/OGGM-GettingStarted-10m/per_glacier/RGI2000-v7.0-G-13/RGI2000-v7.0-G-13-53/RGI2000-v7.0-G-13-53637/DEM3/dem.tif which cannot be get the path correctly.
Maybe the source code is outdated.

I haven't been able to reproduce an error. Could you provide us with a some information? e.g. what code do you use and which error does it result in? And what OGGM version are you using?

[Dongdong001122]

The version of OGGM I use is 1.6.1 and the version of python is 3.10.12. The code I use is as the following.
from oggm import cfg, utils cfg.initialize(logging_level='WARNING') cfg.PARAMS['melt_f'], cfg.PARAMS['ice_density'], cfg.PARAMS['continue_on_error'] cfg.PARAMS['use_multiprocessing'] = True from oggm import workflow cfg.PATHS['working_dir'] = utils.gettempdir(dirname='OGGM-GettingStarted-10m', reset=True) cfg.PATHS['working_dir'] rgi_ids = ["RGI2000-v7.0-G-13-53637" , "RGI2000-v7.0-G-13-53597"] ###the pre-processed directories base_url = 'https://cluster.klima.uni-bremen.de/~oggm/gdirs/oggm_v1.6/rgitopo/2023.1/' gdirs = workflow.init_glacier_directories(rgi_ids, from_prepro_level=1, prepro_border=10, prepro_rgi_version='70', prepro_base_url=base_url) type(gdirs), type(gdirs[0]) gdir = gdirs[0] # take Unteraar glacier print('Path to the DEM:', gdir.get_filepath('dem')) from oggm import graphics graphics.plot_domain(gdir, figsize=(6, 5))

Hi, the preprocessed directories you are using for RGi7 contain 9 different DEM sources:

• ASTER
• AW3D30
• COPDEM30
• COPDEM90
• DEM3
• MAPZEN
• NASADEM
• SRTM
• TANDEM.

For an overview of the different datasets see https://rgitools.readthedocs.io/en/latest/dems.html and the current default DEMs of OGGM are listed here https://docs.oggm.org/en/latest/shop.html#topography-data.

Therefore you need to select one DEM before you can graphics.plot_domain. Here is the code example when selecting NASADEM:

from oggm.shop.rgitopo import select_dem_from_dir

workflow.execute_entity_task(select_dem_from_dir, gdirs,
                             dem_source='NASADEM',
                             keep_dem_folders=False)

After this you can do graphics.plot_domain.
