6.7IDF Options

iMOD supports several basic functionalities that manipulate IDF-files:

• IDF Value,
• IDF Export,
• IDF Calculator, use this tool to apply simple algebra, rescale the IDF and/or merge several IDF-file into a single one.
• IDF Edit, use this tool to select areas for which computations are carried out. These can be simple algebraic computations and/or smoothing and/or interpolation.

6.7.1IDF Value

WHY?
IDF-files are raster files with (non)-equidistant rastersizes. Interactive inspection of the raster with the IDF Value option is a quick and easy way to check the raster values.

WHAT?
IDF Value allows you to view particular rastercell values for a single IDF-file, or multiple IDF-files. iMOD will read the IDF values underneath the current mouse position.

HOW?
In the Map tab of the iMOD Manager window, click the Map Value ( ) button to open the Map Value window. Otherwise, use the shortcut F3 or right-click anywhere on the canvas to open the popup menu. Select the option IDF Options and then choose IDF Analyse. Or alternatively, select the menu option Map, choose the option IDF Options and then IDF Analyse.

Map Value Window:

Current Location	This field shows the current location of the mouse on the canvas. Press the LEFT mouse button to freeze the current location. Restart inspection over the canvas by pressing the LEFT mouse button again.
IDF	This column in the table shows the IDF selected in the iMOD Manager and part of the inspection with MapValue.
Values	This column shows the value of the IDF (column 1) for the current location. Values that are greater than zero will be coloured red, less than zero become blue.
Transf.	This column shows the transformation that could take place, see for more information about this the syntax of the IDF-file and how to apply a transformation.
Cell Indices	This column shows the column and row number of the selected IDF-files, e.g. Cell Indices=C32;R12 to represent column 32 and row 12 respectively. There is no need that the inspected IDF-files have identical dimension and/or raster discretization. Whenever the mouse is positioned outside the limits of the IDF, Cell Indices=Outside. In case the inspector works with a rectangle/polygon, the Cell Indices will show the minimum and maximum values for the column and row numbers that are within the rectangle/polygon, e.g. Cell Indices=C40-32;R32-54.
Value Format:	Choose the preferred value format from the dropdown menu. You can choose from: Real (e.g. 2.345), Integer (e.g. 002) and Scientific notation (0.2345E+01).
Decimal places:	Change this value to set the total amount of decimal values (values behind the point), the possible range is 0-15.
Help …	Click this button to start the iMOD Help Functionality.
Close	Click this button to close the MapValue window. Alternatively the MapValue window can be closed by clicking the RIGHT mouse button anywhere on the canvas.

Note: All selected files in the iMOD Manager will be listed in the Map Value window, however, IPFs, IFFs, GENs and ISGs will be left out automatically. There is no need to deselect them before clicking the Map Value button. Whenever a MDF-file is selected, all IDF-files within the MDF-file will be displayed and also the MDF-filename.

Map Value window filled with items from a MDF-file:

Note: The menu options Move, Zoom In, Zoom Out, Zoom Full and Zoom Rectangle are available during the Map Value exercise.

Note: Click the left mouse button to stop hovering over the graphical display. It will freeze the values in the Map Value window. Start hovering again by clicking the left mouse button again, terminate the entire functionality by clicking the right mouse button.

On default, the Map Value window will operate as a point inspector, in other words, the value will be read for the current position of the mouse. Click the menu option Map, the option IDF Options and then the option IDF Analyse to display the following options to alter this:

• Plot No Location
Check this item whenever no rastercells of the selected IDF-file need to be displayed.
• Plot All Locations
Check this item whenever the rastercells of all selected IDF-files need to be displayed. Bear in mind that the performance will slow down whenever many IDF-files are included, and if IDF-files with non-equidistant rasters are included. Whenever this option is checked, all values in Map Value will be coloured differently.

Map Value window in Plot All Locations mode:
• Plot First Location Only
Check this item whenever the rastercells of the first IDF-file listed in the Map Value table, need to be displayed. This is the default.
• Points
Check this item whenever the values for the current location of the mouse need to be listed. This is the default.
• Rectangle
Check this item whenever the values need to be summed within a rectangle that you can draw. Use the left mouse button to locate the first position of the rectangle and the left/right mouse button to stop and close the Map Value window.
• Polygon
Check this item whenever the values need to be summed within a polygon that you can draw. Use the left mouse button to locate the first position of the polygon and continue to add more points (as desired) to complete the polygon. Use the right mouse button to stop and close the Map Value window.
• Circle
Check this item whenever the values need to be summed within a circle that you can draw. Use the left mouse button to locate the first position of the circle and expand the size of the circle while moving the mouse pointer away from the first position (centre of the circle). Click again on your left mouse button to stop and close the Map Value window.

6.7.2IDF Export

WHY?
IDF-files have a specific format. The export to a format readable in other software applications makes it possible to use the IDF-files outside iMOD.

WHAT?
The IDF-files can be exported in several formats.

HOW?
Choose the option Map from the main menu, choose IDF Options and then IDF Export to display the following menu options:

• ESRI ASC Format
Check this option to export the IDF into an ESRI ASCII format. Bear in mind that this ESRI ASCII format does not support non-equidistant cell sizes. Therefore, the export will result always in an equidistant ASCII file, see section 9.14 for the exact syntax of an ESRI-ASCII file. Any ASCII file can be read in again in iMOD to convert is back to an IDF file, see section 6.1.
• NetCDF Format
Check this option to export the IDF into the NetCDF3 format. Any NetCDF file can be read in again in iMOD to convert is back to an IDF file, see section 6.1. This function is only available in the X32-bits version of iMOD.

For both export formats the following options are available:

• Export Total Extent
Click this option to export the current IDF for its total extent.
• Export Current Extent
Click this option to export the current IDF for the current extent of the graphical window.
• Export Given Extent
Click this option to export the current IDF for an extent to be entered.

6.7.3IDF Calculator

WHY?
Arithmetic operations enable the creation of new IDF-files.

WHAT?
The IDF Calculator works with IDF-files as input and enables to:

• calculate a new IDF-file using an arithmetic expression on one or two IDF-files (the Algebra tab)
• change the rastersize of an IDF-file by upscaling or downscaling (the Scale/Size tab)
• merge a selected number of IDF-files into one IDF-files (the Special tab).

HOW?
The IDF Calculator can be displayed at any time from the iMOD Manager, click the Calculator button and/or use the Map option from the main menu (or the popup menu that displays whenever you click your right mouse button on the graphical window), choose IDF Options and then the option IDF Calculate. The following Map Operations window will be displayed.

Map Operation window, Algebra tab:

Map Operation window, Scale/Size tab:

Map Operation window, Special tab:

Function	Select one of the following functions: • MERGE use this option to merge the selected IDF-files into a single one; • SUM use this option to sum all values for the selected IDF-files into a single one. • MEAN use this option to compute the mean for all values for the selected IDF-files; • MIN use this option to compute the minimum value for all values for the selected IDF-files; • MAX use this option to compute the maximum value for all values for the selected IDF-files.
IDF-files:	Select more than one IDF-file to be merged. iMOD will calculate values for the overlapping areas based on the inverse distance to the extent border of the IDF-files. The weigh-factor for an IDF-file, increases whenever the point considered, lies further away from the extent border of the IDF-file. Exact in the middle between two IDF-files, the weigh-factors for both will become 0.5.
Mask	Select this option to include a mask that determines the area to be merged, e.g. a boundary of catchment area. This option is only available whenever Function=MERGE.
Mask File:	Enter the IDF-file of the mask. All data in the IDF, not equal to the NoDataValue will be used to identify the size of the mask.
	Open IDF-file Click this button to open an IDF-file as MaskFile.
Result:	Enter the name of the IDF-file to be created.
Compute...	Click this button to start the computation, it closes the Map Operations window afterwards.
Help ...	Click this button to start the iMOD Help Functionality.
Close	Click this button to close the Map Operations window.

Note: It is allowed only to merge equidistant IDF-files (IEQ=0, see section 9.5).

6.7.4IDF Edit

WHY?
IDF-files are raster files with (non)-equidistant rastersizes. Normal GIS systems can not manipulate raster files in an easy way, moreover, it is difficult to edit individual raster cells.

WHAT?
The values of individual rastercells can be easily altered by selecting the rastercells and assigning a new value using the Calculate option. Also cell sizes of existing IDFs can be altered easily by grid refinement using upscaling and downscaling techniques.

IDF Edit allows you to select particular rastercells inside an IDF-file based on a maximum of two logical expressions that optionally operate inside a polygon. Logical expressions can be carried out sequentially. Once a selection has been made, different values can be assigned to them directly, or an interpolation and/or smoothing algorithm can be applied. A selection is carried out for mid points of rastercells for a particular IDF (Selection IDF). Those midpoints will be used also to perturb corresponding raster cells for IDF-files with different rastersizes and/or position. For these cases, it should be known that not all of the rastercells are affected by the alteration due to intermediate cells that are in-between midpoints of the Selection IDF.

Methodology of selecting and calculating with IDF Edit:

HOW?
To start IDF Edit select Map from the main menu, choose IDF Options and then IDF Edit. Alternatively, you can select the menu item from the popup menu that appears when you right-click your mouse in the graphical window. In both cases, you should select at least one IDF from the iMOD Manager, the IDF Edit window will appear.

IDF Edit window, Selection tab, (left) initial window, (right) after selection:

IDF Edit window, GridRefinement tab:

Map A	Displays the first IDF. On default it will display the first selected IDF from the iMOD Manager, click the button Open IDF to open a different one.
Map B	Displays the second IDF. On default it will display the second selected IDF from the iMOD Manager, click the button Open IDF to open a different one.
Map C	Enter the name of the resulting IDF. On default it will use the name DIFF.IDF that will be saved in the TMP-folder of the USER-folder.
	Open IDF Click this button to select an IDF-file from a folder
Formula	Enter the formula to be used. The syntax of the formulae is that the IDF-names entered as Map A, Map B and Map C are represented by the characters A, B and C, respectively. The example C=A-B means that the values of Map A will be subtracted by the values in Map B. The following operators are available in the formulae: + Adds a values - Subtracts a value / Divides a value * Multiplies a value ? Takes the first NoDataValue found in Map A then Map B \(<\) Takes the smallest from both values between Map A and Map B \(>\) Takes the largest from both values between Map A and Map B. The following functions are available in the formulae: ABS() Takes the absolute value of the expression between brackets. LOG() Takes the log-10 value of the expression between brackets. EXP() Takes the exponent of the expression between brackets. GTP() Computes the groundwaterclass (“grondwatertrap”). Enter a mean highest groundwaterlevel for Map A and the mean lowest groundwater level for Map B. SGN() Assigns a individual value for each combination of computation, it results the following values. both values are negative A \(>\) B = 1 A \(<\) B = 2 both values are positive A \(<\) B = 3 A \(>\) B = 4 value A is positive and value B is negative 5 value A is negative and value B is positive 6 LN() computes the natural log-value.
Expression	The Formula entered is translated into an Expression which will be used, eventually. The expression can be used to check whether the formulae has been filled in correctly. Note: It is possible to include constant values in the Formulae, e.g. [C=1.5A] which means that all values in Map A* will be multiplied with a factor of 1.5. Be aware that the number should come before Map A as in the formulae [C=A1.5] the constant value is ignored. This can be extended to another factor to be used for Map B, e.g. [C=1.5A-0.5/B]. It should be noticed that these constant value are rounded to a single precision real (8 digit number), so the entered value 0.1234567890 becomes 0.12345678 in the Expression. Example of the Formulae:
Ignore NoData_ Value	Check this option to ignore the NoDataValues in the IDF-files. On default cells equal to the NoDataValue of the IDF will be excluded in the computation.
Use NoData_ Value as value	Check this option to use the NoDataValues in the computation. Specify the value to replace the NoDataValue of the IDFs. On default the value 0.0 is used.
Apply function for …	After the calculation, this option gives values smaller than given/entered absolute value a nodata value, e.g. C=A-B if C<0.1 C=nodata.
Transform into …	Check this option to force that the resulting IDF (Map C) will have equidistant cellsizes. Whenever any of the selected IDF-files (Map A and/or Map B) is an IDF-file with non-equidistant cellsizes, the smallest cellsize in one of these will be used to determine the cellsize of Map C.
Use .gen*	Check this option to force that the results of Map C will be computed inside the polygons that are defined in the entered .GEN-file (.gen).
*.gen	Enter the *.GEN-file with polygons
	Open File Click this button to select a *.GEN file
Select the extent for which the computation apllies:	Click one of the following options: • Window, to force that the results of Map C will be computed for the current ZoomLevel only; • Map A, to force that the results of Map C will be computed for the extent of Map A. • x1,y1,x2,y2, to enter the coordinates of a specific window

	Open IDF Click this button to select an IDF-file from a folder.
Map C	Enter the name of the resulting IDF. On default it will use the IDF-file from Map A and add the postfix SCALED to it, so the IDF-name will change from .IDF into _SCALED.IDF.
Scale	Enter the new cell size of the IDF. The resulting IDF will be an equidistant IDF with this cellsize.
Formulae Upscale Formulae	Select a Formula to be used in the Upscaling (increased cell size): • Boundary : minus values above positive values above zero values; • Arithmetic Mean :sum cell values, excluding the NoDataValues, and divide them by the number of cells; • Geometric Mean : take log()-function for cell values, excluding the NoDataValues and zero values, sum cell log-values, divide them by the number of cells and take the exp()-function; • Sum : sum cell values, excluding the NoDataValues; • Sum Conductance : sum cell values, multiplied with the ratio of …., excluding the NoDataValues; • Inverse : take the inverse (1/x) of cellvalues, excluding the NoDataValues and zero values, and divide them by the number of cells; • Most.Freq.Occur. : take the cell value that occurs most frequently within a coarse cell, excluding the NoDataValues; • Sum Inverse: take the sum of the inverse (x\({}^{-1}\)) of the cell values, excluding NoDataValues and zero values; • Percentile : take the cell value that occurs for a given percentile (0-1) within a coarse cell, excluding the NoDataValues; • Block value : the value of the centre cell.
Downscale Formulae	Downscaling (decreased cell size): • Arithm. Average: produces a good guess for all finer gridcells as a linear interpolation based on the coarse gridcells. • BlockValue: assign the value of the coarse gridcell to all finer gridcells.
Select the extent for which the computation apllies:	Click one of the following options: • Window, to force that the results of Map C will be computed for the current ZoomLevel only; • Map A, to force that the results of Map C will be computed for the extent of Map A. • x1,y1,x2,y2, to enter the coordinates of a specific window
