ADMESH Domains

A registry of ADCIRC-compatible coastal-simulation mesh domains, organized as Domains (geographic regions or logical groups) containing one or more Meshes (specific realizations).

• Release: data-2026-04-27-3a5ffe8
• Schema version: 0.3
• Domains: 13
• Meshes: 41
• Total size: 62.0 MB
• Source: https://github.com/domattioli/ADMESH-Domains

Geographic coverage

Bounding boxes shown for Domains whose coordinates are in lat/lon (decimal degrees). Synthetic, projected, and arbitrary-coordinate Domains are listed in the tables below but not plotted.

Quickstart

Install the Python package and load a mesh from this dataset:

pip install admesh-domains[hf]

from admesh_domains import get_mesh

mesh = get_mesh("WNAT/hagen@v1")
local_path = mesh.load()       # downloads + caches via huggingface_hub
print(local_path)              # /Users/.../huggingface/hub/.../WNAT_Hagen.14

You can also use the HF CLI directly:

hf download domattioli/ADMESH-Domains --type dataset

Or load the Parquet sidecar to query without Python:

import pyarrow.parquet as pq
from huggingface_hub import hf_hub_download

p = hf_hub_download(
    repo_id="domattioli/ADMESH-Domains",
    filename="manifest.parquet",
    repo_type="dataset",
)
table = pq.read_table(p)
print(table.to_pandas().head())
