Building parcels to run WOFOST required querying a shapefile containing spatial information about all parcels in the UK. This was clunky and time consuming, as well as inefficient for data storage. Now the parcel data has been moved into a postgreSQL-postGIS database with indexing on parcel IDs which makes it much more efficient. Parcel data is stored in the same database where the elevation data is contained, which needs to be specified in the 'config.ini' file created from the config.ini.example template configuration file.
