The official documentation is at https://index-calculator.readthedocs.io/

Features
--------
* Calculate climate indices via xclim_.
* Write standardized netCDF attributes.
* Write on disk with a project-specific output file name.

Available projects
------------------
You can calculate climate indicators using index_calculator with the projects listed in the table below.

+--------------------+--------------+
| CMIP               | CMIP5, CMIP6 |
+--------------------+--------------+
| CORDEX             | CORDEX       |
+--------------------+--------------+
| Observational data | E-OBS, HYRAS |
+--------------------+--------------+
| Reanalysis data    | ERA5         |

Installation
------------

You can install the package directly with pip:

.. code-block:: console

     pip install index_calculator

If you want to contribute, we recommend cloning the repository, setup a conda environmant and installing the package in development mode, e.g.

.. code-block:: console

    git clone https://github.com/climate-service-center/index_calculator
    cd index_calculator
    conda env create -f ci/requirements/environment.yml
    conda activate xcalc-tests
    pip install -e . --no-deps

This will install the package but you can still edit it and you don't need the package in your :code:`PYTHONPATH`


Requirements
------------

* python3.6 or higher

* xclim

* numpy

* pandas

* xarray

* cf_xarray

* cftime
