flowsa is a data processing library attributing resources (environmental, monetary, and human), wastes, emissions, and losses to sectors, typically NAICS codes. flowsa aggregates, combines, and allocates data from a variety of sources. The sources can be found in the GitHub wiki under "Flow-By-Activity Datasets".

flowsa helps support USEEIO as part of the USEEIO modeling framework. The USEEIO models estimate potential impacts of goods and services in the US economy. The Flow-By-Sector datasets created in FLOWSA are the environmental inputs to useeior.

Flow-By-Activity datasets are formatted tables from a variety of sources. They are largely unchanged from the original data source, with the exception of formatting. A list of available FBA datasets can be found in the Wiki.

import flowsa
flowsa.seeAvailableFlowByModels('FBA')
flowsa.getFlowByActivity(datasource="USDA_CoA_Cropland", year=2017)

Flow-By-Sector datasets are tables of environmental and other data attributed to sectors. A list of available FBS datasets can be found in the Wiki.

import flowsa

flowsa.getFlowBySector('Water_national_2015_m1')

pip install git+https://github.com/USEPA/[email protected]#egg=flowsa
