geoxarray 0.1.0

Installation

The geoxarray library will be available on PyPI and can be installed with pip:

pip install geoxarray

For the most recent development versions of geoxarray, it can be installed directly from the root of the source directory:

pip install -e .

In the future geoxarray will also be available on conda-forge.

Dependencies

Besides the xarray dependency, the geoxarray package uses CRS objects from the pyproj library. Additionally, geoxarray has a lot of optional dependencies when it comes to converting to other libraries’ CRS or geolocation objects. These libraries include, but may not be limited to:

• rasterio

• cartopy

• pyresample

Relationship with rioxarray

At the time of writing, rioxarray is an independent project whose features related to CRS and dimension handling are very similar if not exactly the same as geoxarray. Rioxarray existed first and paved the way to show how CRS information can be handled in an xarray-friendly way. Much of geoxarray is inspired by rioxarray, if not copied directly. Portions of code copied from rioxarray are noted in docstrings for that code and are under the Apache License of rioxarray which has been copied as LICENSE_rioxarray in the geoxarray package and repository.

Development Status

Geoxarray is actively being developed as a side project. Additions and modifications are done as developers have time. If you would like to contribute, suggest features, or discuss anything else please file a bug on github.
