in1Data.getInput.checkForMultiplePartsShpArea

checkForMultiplePartsShpArea(avaDir, lineDict, modName, type='')[source]

check if in polygon read from shape file holes are present, if so error and save a plot to Outputs/com1DFA procedure: check if polygon has several parts

Parameters

  • avaDir (str) – path to avalanche directory

  • lineDict (dict) – dictionary with info read from shape file used: x, y, Start, Length, nParts, nFeatures

  • modName (str) – name of computational module where to save error plots to Outputs subfolder

  • type (str) – type of shp file area (release, secondary release, entrainment, resistance)

Returns

  • error if number of parts is bigger 1

  • save plot showing all parts of each polygon feature in Outputs/modName
