pySonde: converting radiosonde files to netcdf

pySonde converts Vaisala's radiosonde files (mwx) and Meteomodem soundings (cor) to netCDF4 and interpolates them if needed to a common height grid for easier processing.

Setup

pip install pysonde

For development

# Install dependencies
pipenv install --dev

# Setup pre-commit and pre-push hooks
pipenv run pre-commit install -t pre-commit
pipenv run pre-commit install -t pre-push

Usage

A few example files are automatically installed and can be used to test if the installation was successful

Unix:

sounding_converter -i examples/level0/BCO_20200126_224454.mwx -o "test_{direction}.nc" -c config/main.yaml

Windows:

sounding_converter.exe -i examples/level0/BCO_20200126_224454.mwx -o "test_{direction}.nc" -c config/main.yaml

The configuration of attributes, variable names and units of the input and output is done via yaml files in the config folder.

To post-process radiosoundings with pysonde and track the processing steps, a new repository should be created that only contains the config folder and its scripts. An additional bash script with the sounding_converter calls tracks the processing steps. The version used of pysonde is automatically inserted into the output files.

The repository containing the processing setup for the circBrazil campaign can serve as a template.
