"""datamanager.py - input output for AnuGA


This module takes care of reading and writing datafiles such as topograhies,
model output, etc


Formats used within AnuGA:

.sww: Netcdf format for storing model output f(t,x,y)
.tms: Netcdf format for storing time series f(t)

.xya: ASCII format for storing arbitrary points and associated attributes
.pts: NetCDF format for storing arbitrary points and associated attributes

.asc: ASCII format of regular DEMs as output from ArcView
.prj: Associated ArcView file giving more meta data for asc format
.ers: ERMapper header format of regular DEMs for ArcView

.dem: NetCDF representation of regular DEM data

.tsh: ASCII format for storing meshes and associated boundary and region info
.msh: NetCDF format for storing meshes and associated boundary and region info

.nc: Native ferret NetCDF format
.geo: Houdinis ascii geometry format (?)


A typical dataflow can be described as follows

Manually created files:
ASC, PRJ:     Digital elevation models (gridded)
TSH:          Triangular meshes (e.g. created from pmesh)
NC            Model outputs for use as boundary conditions (e.g from MOST)


AUTOMATICALLY CREATED FILES:

ASC, PRJ  ->  DEM  ->  PTS: Conversion of DEM's to native pts file

NC -> SWW: Conversion of MOST bundary files to boundary sww

PTS + TSH -> TSH with elevation: Least squares fit

TSH -> SWW:  Conversion of TSH to sww viewable using Swollen

TSH + Boundary SWW -> SWW: Simluation using pyvolution
