| 15 | +`eo-tides` combines advanced tide modelling functionality from the [`pyTMD`](https://pytmd.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) package and integrates it with `pandas`, `xarray` and `odc-geo` to provide a powerful set of parallelised tools for integrating satellite imagery with tide data – from local, regional to continental scale. |

|
20 | 17 | Some key functionality includes the ability to:
|
21 | 18 |
|
22 |
| -- Model tides from multiple global ocean tide models (e.g. FES2022, FES2014, TPXO9, EOT20 and many more) in parallel, and return tide heights in standardised `pandas.DataFrame` format for further analysis |
| 19 | +- Model tides from multiple global ocean tide models in parallel, and return tide heights in standardised `pandas.DataFrame` format for further analysis |
23 | 20 | - "Tag" satellite data timeseries with tide data based on the exact moment of each satellite acquisition
|
24 | 21 | - Model tides for every individual satellite pixel, producing three-dimensional "tide height" `xarray`-format datacubes that can be combined with satellite data
|
25 | 22 | - Calculate statistics describing local tide dynamics, as well as biases caused by interactions between tidal processes and satellite orbits
|
26 |
| -- Validate modelled tides using measured sea levels from coastal tide gauges |
| 23 | +- Validate modelled tides using measured sea levels from coastal tide gauges (e.g. GESLA) |
27 | 24 |
|
28 | 25 | These tools can be applied directly to petabytes of freely available satellite data (e.g. from Digital Earth Australia or Microsoft Planetary Computer) loaded via Open Data Cube's `odc-stac` or `datacube` packages, supporting coastal and ocean earth observation analysis for any time period or location globally.

| 27 | +## Supported tide models |
| 28 | + |
| 29 | +`eo-tides` supports [all ocean tide models supported by `pyTMD`](https://pytmd.readthedocs.io/en/latest/getting_started/Getting-Started.html#model-database). These include: |
| 30 | + |
| 31 | +- FES2022, FES2014, FES2012 |
| 32 | +- TPXO10, TPXO9, TPXO8 |
