Paegan attempts to fill the need for a high level common data model (CDM) library for array based met/ocean data stored in netCDF files or distributed over OPeNDAP.
from paegan.cdm.dataset import CommonDataset
url = "http://thredds.axiomalaska.com/thredds/dodsC/PWS_DAS.nc"
pd = CommonDataset.open(url)#####Bbox
pd.restrict_bbox((-74, 40, -70, 42))#####Time
from datetime import datetime,timedelta
ending = datetime.utcnow()
starting = ending - timedelta(hours=12)
pd.restrict_time((starting, ending))#####Depth
pd.restrict_depth((3,50))#####Variables
pd.restrict_vars(("u","v"))#####Time
from datetime import datetime
import pytz
now = datetime.utcnow().replace(tzinfo=pytz.utc)
pd.nearest_time(now)#####Depth
pd.nearest_depth(5)You are using virtualenv, right?
- Install virtualenv-burrito
- Create virtualenv named "paegan-dev":
mkvirtualenv -p your_python_binary paegan-dev - Start using your new virtualenv:
workon paegan-dev
Paegan requires python 2.7.x and is available on PyPI.
The best way to install Paegan is through pip:
pip install paeganPaegan requires the following python libraries which will be downloaded and installed through pip:
- numpy>=1.7.0
- scipy
- netCDF4>=1.0.2 (requires netcdf and hdf5 C libraries)
- Shapely>=1.2.15 (requires geos C library)
- pytz
- python-dateutil>=1.5
If your NetCDF4 and HDF5 libraries are in non-typical locations, you will need to pass the locations to the pip command:
NETCDF4_DIR=path HDF5_DIR=path pip install paeganThere seems to be a problem installing numpy through pip so you may need to install numpy before doing any of the above:
pip install numpy==1.7.0- Better grid support
- Regridding tools
Other modules making use of Paegan
- paegan-transport - Parallelized Lagrangian transport model for NetCDF/OPeNDAP data
- paegan-viz - Visualization tools for NetCDF/OPeNDAP data
If you are having trouble getting any of the paegan functionality to work, try running the tests:
git clone [email protected]:asascience-open/paegan.git`
cd paegan
python setup.py testIf you want to run the dataset, timevar, depthvar, or roms tests, you will need to edit the test files with paths appropriate for your system.
Some tests requires large files that are not in source control. You can get them here:
- ETOPO1 Global Bathymetry (ETOPO1_Bed_g_gmt4.grd)
- HFRadar Gridded Sample (marcooshfradar20120331.nc)
- NCOM Gridded Surface Sample (ncom_glb_sfc8_hind_2012033100.nc)
- POM Gridded 3D Sample (m201310100.out3.nc)
- ROMS C-GRID 3D Sample (ocean_avg_synoptic_seg22.nc)
- Regular Grid Sample (pws_L2_2012040100.nc)
They are expected to be located in /data/lm/tests, if they are not you can symlink to them in that directory.
