oggm.workflow.count_rgi_chunks(rgidf, chunk_size=1000)[source]#

Number of chunks the given glaciers fall into.

This is derived from the RGI ids, not chosen: it is the highest chunk index plus one. Note that chunks can therefore be uneven, and the last one is often small.

Parameters:
rgidfgeopandas.GeoDataFrame or list of str

the glaciers to partition (an RGI dataframe or a list of RGI ids)

chunk_sizeint

100 or 1000 (default). See oggm.workflow.get_rgi_chunk().

Returns:
the number of chunks (int)
