Python Space Physics Environment Data Analysis Software (SPEDAS)
Project description
# pySPEDAS
[](https://travis-ci.com/spedas/pyspedas)
pySPEDAS is an implementation of the SPEDAS framework in python.
The Space Physics Environment Data Analysis Software ([SPEDAS](http://spedas.org/wiki)) framework is written in IDL and contains data loading, data analysis and data plotting tools for various scientific NASA missions.
This package is designed to work with the libraries [cdflib](https://github.com/MAVENSDC/cdflib) and [pytplot](https://github.com/MAVENSDC/PyTplot).
### How It Works
CDF files are downloaded from the internet to the local machine.
The data from these files is loaded into pytplot objects and can be plotted.
## Getting Started
These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes.
### Install Python
Python 3.5+ is required.
We recommend [Anaconda](https://www.continuum.io/downloads/) which comes with a suite of packages useful for science.
### Install pyspedas
To install pyspedas, open a command line and type the command:
pip install pyspedas
### Upgrade pyspedas
If you have already installed pyspedas, you can upgrade to the latest version using:
pip install –upgrade pyspedas
## Running pyspedas
After installation, please change the file pyspedas/prefs.ini and set data_dir=C:Datapythemis to a writable directory of your choice. This is the local directory where the CDF files will be saved.
To download CDF files for the Themis mission, use:
import pyspedas
pyspedas.load_data(mission, dates, probes, instruments, level, downloadonly)
For example:
d = pyspedas.load_data(‘themis’, ‘2015-12-31’, [‘tha’], ‘state’, ‘l1’, False)
### Crib sheets
Folder examples contains some crib sheets to get you started.
