Python utilities for climate data collection, conversion, and management.

* Free software: Apache Software License 2.0
* Documentation: https://miranda.readthedocs.io.

Features
--------

Data collection functions for climate and forecast data hosted at:
    * ECMWF (Europe) (ERA5, ERA5-Land, TIGGE)
    * ECCC (Canada) (Monthly Climate Summaries, ECCC GEOAPI) (In development)
    * NCAR (CORDEX-NA on AWS)

Data conversion for `Climate and Forecasting (CF) `_ Variable and Metadata compliance:
    * ECMWF (Europe) (ERA5, ERA5-Land, TIGGE) (In Development)
    * ECCC (Canada) (Flat File Observations, Monthly Climate Summaries, Adjusted and Homogenized Climate Data, ECCC GEOAPI) (In Development)
    * MELCC (Québec)
    * Hydro-Québec (In Development)

Database structuring and facets validation:
    * Simulations:
       * WCRP (CMIP5, CMIP6, CMIP5-CORDEX, CORDEX-ADJUST, ISIMIP, etc.)
    * Station-Observations:
       * MELCC (Québec) (Needs `mdbtools `_ installed)
       * ECCC (Canada) (In Development)
       * Hydro-Québec (In Development)
    * Gridded-Observations:
       * NRCAN (Canada) (In Development)
       * MELCC (Québec) (In Development)
    * Reanalyses:
       * ECCC (Canada) (CanSWE, CaSR, RDRS)
       * ECMWF (Europe) (ERA5, ERA5-Land, TIGGE)
       * NASA (DayMET, NEX-GDDP) (In Development)
       * USask (Canada) (EMDNA)

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

`miranda` can be installed from PyPI:

.. code-block:: shell

    $ python -m pip install miranda

Some functionalities require complex-to-install dependencies.
In order to gain access to them, we strongly suggest using `Anaconda `_ to manage your environment:

.. code-block:: shell

    $ conda env create -f environment.yml
    $ conda activate miranda
    $ python -m pip install miranda[full]

For more information about Anaconda/Miniconda/conda-forge:
    * Miniconda: https://docs.conda.io/en/latest/miniconda.html
    * conda-forge: https://conda-forge.org/#about

`miranda` also relies on `PyESSV `_ for its climate data controlled vocabulary.
This library is optional for users who do not require validation checks,
but enabling this feature requires additional installation steps:

.. code-block:: shell

    $ mkdir -p ~/.esdoc
    $ git clone git@github.com:ES-DOC/pyessv-archive.git ~/.esdoc/pyessv-archive

`miranda` development is funded through `Ouranos`_, a not-for-profit collaborative innovation organization fostering resilient adaptation to climate change, based in Québec, Canada.
