The scripts are used to download, and extract CHIRPS rainfall data from any catchment in Africa. The user needs to have python3 installed with the modules in the scripts. Run the scripts according to the numbers:- 1-downloads the data from the CHIRPS domain; 2-extracts the rasters from the zipped chirps files; 3-creates rainfall txt files per pixel for the selected area. The user needs should download the whole folder ('working_dir') and add the shapefile (.shp') and a dem ('.tif') of the area of interest (in 'EPSG:4326') then run the scripts in order.
The rainfall txt files are prepared ready for use in a SWAT or SWAT+ model.
