The Land Input Generator (LandInG) is a toolbox for generating input datasets for terrestrial ecosystem models (TEMs) from diverse and partially conflicting data sources. While LandInG is applicable to process data for any TEM, it is developed specifically for the open-source dynamic global vegetation, hydrology, and crop growth model LPJmL (Lund–Potsdam–Jena with managed Land).
The toolbox documents the sources and processing of data to model inputs and allows for easy changes to the spatial resolution. It is designed to make inconsistencies between different sources of data transparent so that users can make their own decisions on how to resolve these should they not be content with the default assumptions made here.
LandInG has been documented in the following publication: Ostberg, S., Müller, C., Heinke, J., and Schaphoff, S.: LandInG 1.0: a toolbox to derive input datasets for terrestrial ecosystem modelling at variable resolutions from heterogeneous sources, Geosci. Model Dev., 16, 3375–3406, https://doi.org/10.5194/gmd-16-3375-2023, 2023
If you want to check out some results from a sample application of LandInG without running the toolbox yourself there is an interactive LandInG Viewer application on MyGeohub that was kindly developed by colleagues from the GLASSNET community.
