Location Oriented Observed Meteorology

metloom is a python library created with the goal of consistent, simple sampling of
meteorology and snow related point measurments from a variety of datasources is developed by `M3 Works `_ as a tool for validating
computational hydrology model results. Contributions welcome!

This is an opensource package with the goal of making data wrangling easier. We make

.. code-block:: python

    # Find your data with ease
    # !pip install folium mapclassify matplotlib
    from metloom.pointdata import SnotelPointData, CDECPointData, USGSPointData
    import geopandas as gpd
    import pandas as pd

    # Shapefile for the US states
    shp = gpd.read_file('https://eric.clst.org/assets/wiki/uploads/Stuff/gz_2010_us_040_00_500k.json').to_crs("EPSG:4326")
    # Filter to states of interest
    west_states = ["Washington", "Oregon", "California", "Idaho", "Nevada", "Utah", "Wyoming", "Montana", "Colorado" ]  # , "Arizona", "New Mexico"]
    shp = shp.loc[shp["NAME"].isin(west_states)].dissolve()

    # Collect all points with SWE from CDEC and NRCS
    dfs = []
    for src in  [CDECPointData, SnotelPointData]:
        dfs.append(src.points_from_geometry(shp, [src.ALLOWED_VARIABLES.SWE]).to_dataframe())

Features
--------
.. code-block:: python

    # !pip install plotly
    from metloom.pointdata import SnotelPointData
    import plotly.express as px
    import pandas as pd

    # Initialize your point
    pt = SnotelPointData("312:ID:SNTL", "Banner Summit")
    swe_variable = pt.ALLOWED_VARIABLES.SWE
    # Get the data
    df = pt.get_daily_data(
        pd.to_datetime("2024-10-01"), pd.to_datetime("2025-03-11"), [swe_variable]
    ).reset_index()
    # Create a time series plot using Plotly Express
    px.line(df, x="datetime", y=swe_variable.name, title=f"{pt.name} SWE")

* Sampling of daily, hourly, and snow course data
* Searching for stations from a datasource within a shapefile
* Current data sources:
    * `CDEC `_
    * `SNOTEL `_
    * `MESOWEST `_
    * `USGS `_
    * `NWS FORECAST `_
    * `GEOSPHERE AUSTRIA `_

    * `MET NORWAY `_
    * `SNOWEX MET STATIONS `_
    * `CENTER FOR SNOW AND AVALANCHE STUDIES (CSAS) `_

Requirements
------------
python >= 3.7

Install
-------
.. code-block:: bash

    python3 -m pip install metloom

* Common install issues:
    * Macbook M1 and M2 chips: some python packages run into issues with the new M chips
        * ``error : from lxml import etree in utils.py ((mach-o file, but is an incompatible architecture (have 'x86_64', need 'arm64)``
            The solution is the following

            .. code-block:: bash

                pip uninstall lxml
                pip install --no-binary lxml lxml



Local install for dev
---------------------
The recommendation is to use virtualenv, but other local python
environment isolation tools will work (pipenv, conda)

.. code-block:: bash

    python3 -m pip install --upgrade pip
    python3 -m pip install -r requirements_dev
    python3 -m pip install .

Testing
-------

.. code-block:: bash

    pytest

If contributing to the codebase, code coverage should not decrease
from the contributions. Make sure to check code coverage before
opening a pull request.

.. code-block:: bash

    pytest --cov=metloom

Documentation
-------------
readthedocs coming soon

https://metloom.readthedocs.io.

Usage
-----
See usage documentation https://metloom.readthedocs.io/en/latest/usage.html

**NOTES:**
PointData methods that get point data return a GeoDataFrame indexed
on *both* datetime and station code. To reset the index simply run
``df.reset_index(inplace=True)``

Simple usage examples are provided in this readme and in the docs. See
our `examples `_
for code walkthroughs and more complicated use cases.

Usage Examples
==============

Use metloom to find data for a station

.. code-block:: python

    from datetime import datetime
    from metloom.pointdata import SnotelPointData

    snotel_point = SnotelPointData("713:CO:SNTL", "MyStation")
    df = snotel_point.get_daily_data(
        datetime(2020, 1, 2), datetime(2020, 1, 20),
        [snotel_point.ALLOWED_VARIABLES.SWE]
    )
    print(df)

Use metloom to find snow courses within a geometry

.. code-block:: python

    from metloom.pointdata import CDECPointData
    from metloom.variables import CdecStationVariables

    import geopandas as gpd

    fp = 
    obj = gpd.read_file(fp)

    vrs = [
        CdecStationVariables.SWE,
        CdecStationVariables.SNOWDEPTH
    ]
    points = CDECPointData.points_from_geometry(obj, vrs, snow_courses=True)
    df = points.to_dataframe()
    print(df)

Tutorials
---------
In the ``Examples`` folder, there are multiple Jupyter notbook based
tutorials. You can edit and run these notebooks by running Jupyter Lab
from the command line

.. code-block:: bash

    pip install jupyterlab
    jupyter lab

This will open a Jupyter Lab session in your default browser.
