Waplugin qgis
Greetings WaPOR Users,
We are excited to announce the new release of WaPLUGIN, a powerful tool designed to make working with FAO WaPOR datasets easier than ever! WaPLUGIN is a QGIS plugin that simplifies the process of downloading WaPOR data and allows users to compute key irrigation performance and water productivity indicators directly in QGIS.
- Easy Data Access: With WaPLUGIN, you can directly download WaPOR V2 and V3 datasets into your QGIS projects.
- Customizable Data Retrieval: Use shapefiles to define areas of interest and crop datasets specifically for your region or project.
- Performance Indicators: Compute essential indicators such as Uniformity of Water Consumption, Beneficial Fraction, and Total Biomass Production, among others, to assess water use efficiency in agriculture.
WaPLUGIN makes your life easier by:
- Saving time with automated downloads and processing of WaPOR data.
- Simplifying analysis by calculating key indicators with just a few clicks.
- Enhancing decision-making with clear insights into water productivity and irrigation performance for sustainable agricultural practices.
To help you get started, we’ve created a free, hands-on workshop where you can learn step-by-step how to use WaPLUGIN. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced user, this workshop will guide you through downloading data, computing indicators, and visualizing results.
