results

area_potential
<results>/{shape}/{scenario}/area_potential_{tech}.tif Area potential GeoTIFF raster in EPSG:4326 for the specified technology across all subunits.

snakemake_defaults

logs
<logs> location of snakemake log files.
resources
<resources> location of module resource (input) files.

<results> location of module result (output) files.

user_resources

shapes
<resources>/user/shapes/{shape}.parquet Region geometries in GeoParquet format. The module internally normalises these geometries and transforms them to EPSG:4326 before processing. These should conform to the schema defined in https://github.com/calliope-project/module_geo_boundaries/blob/main/workflow/internal/shape.schema.yaml.
wdpa
<resources>/user/wdpa.gdb WDPA protected areas database from https://www.protectedplanet.net/ in GeoDB format (choose 'File Geodatabase' when downloading).

Wildcards

scenario
Scenario name from the module configuration.
shape
Name of the shape to be processed, e.g., 'world', 'europe', 'MEX'.
tech
Name of the technology, e.g., 'pv_rooftop' or 'wind_offshore'. Available technologies are defined in the module configuration.
