Adding new datasets
To add a new dataset file, please follow these steps:
- Add the dataset file to the
data/
directory - From the command line, run
python make_registry.py
script to update the registry file residing inopen_radar_data/registry.txt
- Commit and push your changes to GitHub
Using datasets in notebooks and/or scripts
-
Ensure the
open_radar_data
package is installed in your environmentpython -m pip install open-radar-data # or python -m pip install git+https://github.com/openradar/open-radar-data # or conda install -c conda-forge open-radar-data
-
Import
DATASETS
and inspect the registry to find out which datasets are availableIn [1]: from open_radar_data import DATASETS In [2]: DATASETS.registry_files Out[2]: ['sample_sgp_data.nc`]
-
To fetch a data file of interest, use the
.fetch
method and provide the filename of the data file. This will- download and cache the file if it doesn't exist already.
- retrieve and return the local path
In [4]: filepath = DATASETS.fetch('sample_sgp_data.nc') In [5]: filepath Out[5]: '/Users/mgrover/Library/Caches/open-radar-data/sample_sgp_data.nc'
-
Once you have access to the local filepath, you can then use it to load your dataset into pandas or xarray or your package of choice:
In [6]: radar = pyart.io.read(filepath)
Changing the default data cache location
The default cache location (where the data are saved on your local system) is dependent on the operating system. You can use the locate()
method to identify it:
from open_radar_data import locate
locate()
The location can be overwritten by the OPEN_RADAR_DATA_DIR
environment
variable to the desired destination.
