Request for Documentation for Output Formats

[greg-otterpeak]

Issue overview

Not really an "issue", more of a request. If it already exists, please point me in the right direction. :-) I'm looking for detailed documentation about the PostgreSQL output table after a scenario has been run. I'm looking to use this information to "grow" an "as is" distribution model based on the DER forecast created by dGen. I need to understand the information created by your tool to perform this task. In detail, I need to understand how to use the data to apply to a particular geographic region to add new distribution assets based on the model. I know dGen divides an area into a grid pattern, so I need to understand how to interpret the PostgreSQL table to overlay that onto a geographic space. I do apologize if this is somewhere in the documentation, but I haven't seen this level of detail anywhere in my research. Thank you for your time.

I did find the "https://github.com/NREL/dgen/wiki/Open-Source-Data" page, which I have read, but it isn't self-evident about how to translate:

Pgid
A unique geographic block identifier specific to how dGen agents are generated
Tract_id_alias
An additional geographic code corresponding to pgid
County_id
See excel to be included in some file on github or wiki

to an actual location.
