pycmap

Simons CMAP is an open-source data service to retrieve, visualize, and analyze oceanic datasets such as in-situ observations, multi-decade global satellite remote sensing, and model outputs. Pycmap is the python package of Simons CMAP project providing a simple and unified interface to the hosted datasets at Simons CMAP database. It enables the scientists and general public to dive into the vast, and often underutilized, ocean datasets and retrieve customized subsets of these massive datasets without going through the time-consuming process of data collection and preparation.

Documentation

See the table of contents below for pycmap documentations.
The docs are written in jupyter notebook format and each notebook contains one or more example codes. Please download the /docs directory and run the example codes locally. Alternatively, you may run the examples on google cloud using the Colab badge which appears at the top of each page:
