- Description
- The HRU file type is associated with hydrologic modeling and watershed management software. HRU stands for Hydrologic Response Unit, which is a spatial unit used within these models to simulate the movement and availability of water within a given landscape. Each HRU represents a unique combination of land use, soil type, and slope characteristics within the watershed being studied. These files are crucial for environmental scientists and engineers in predicting water flow, assessing water quality, and managing watershed resources.
- A JPG file is an image saved in a compressed image format standardized by the Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG). It is commonly used for storing digital photos and used by most digital cameras to save images. JPG files are among the most common image files along with .PNG, .TIF, and .GIF.
