GloFAS v4 makes use of LISFLOOD OS v4.1.3. Compared to the LISFLOOD OS version used to produce GloFAS v3, LISFLOOD OS v4.1.3 features updates in the hydrological routines, such as pixel-by-pixel computation of water infiltration into the soil, and improvements in the modelling of water abstraction for anthropogenic use. Moreover, LISFLOOD v4.1.3 benefits of significant improvements in the management of large input datasets and in the computational performances.

Consistently with all the previous GloFAS versions, the computations for GloFAS v4 are completed with daily time steps for all the hydrological processes, while sub-daily (4 hours) time steps are used for the modelling of river routing. All the output variables are available with daily resolution.
