Python Package: hestia-earth-models 0.49.0 , Released: August 14, 2023: https://pypi.org/project/hestia-earth-models/
Hestia's set of modules for filling gaps in the activity data using external datasets (e.g. populating soil properties with a geospatial dataset using provided coordinates) and internal lookups (e.g. populating machinery use from fuel use). Includes rules for when gaps should be filled versus not (e.g. never gap fill yield, gap fill crop residue if yield provided etc.).
Please contact us at community@hestia.earth for instructions to download the required file to run the model
Documentation: for every model can be found in the Hestia API Documentation.
Has multiple Calculation Models that it has implemented: https://www.hestia.earth/docs/#hestia-calculation-models
