Processing multiple inputs automatically

Hi.

I have multiple Areas of Interest. If I systematically set up the corresponding inputs in a file system, is there any way such that I can run the InVEST models on them automatically, and not have to do them manually for each Area of Interest. I’m talking on the scale of close to 50 different Areas of Interest.

Hi @raks0009,

It certainly is possible to batch process InVEST jobs and we do it all the time. We have some documentation here: https://invest.readthedocs.io/en/latest/scripting.html to get you started. It requires a little bit of coding know how but at the very basic level you can use the model UI dropdown Development -> Save as Python Script to get started. In that Python file you could then iterate over the model call by passing in the different AOIs from a list.

Hopefully that’s enough to get you started!
