Software

The key to analysis of simulation datasets is software infrastructure. Below are my packages, packages I contributed to, and some all time favorites. Some tutorials are also available.

PRIMARY DEVELOPER:

Python interface to the Remote Sensing Information Gateway

Access EPA, NOAA, and NASA data: from surface monitors to the latest satellites in familiar pandas and xarray objects.

AirFuse

Combines air quality model forecasts (NASA or NOAA) with surface observations (EPA) and low-cost sensors (PurpleAir) to create a best estimate map

Python Environment for Reaction Mechanism/Mathematics

Network-based queries of chemical mechanisms (Carbon Bond, GEOS-Chem, MCM, etc)

Air Quality Model Boundary Conditions

(previous options: http://github.com/barronh/geos2cmaq; http://github.com/barronh/pygeos2cmaq)

PseudoNetCDF Python Library

Do you like air quality models? Do you struggle with the many custom binary formats? PseudoNetCDF presents a netcdf-like interface to data from many, many, many formats (CAMx, GEOS-Chem, CMAQ, AERMOD, GEOS, ICARTT, HYSPLIT, ...)
