- What: A series of IPython Notebooks on exploring Unidata technology with Python for the 2014 Unidata Training Workshop.
- When: <2014-10-21 Tue>–<2014-10-22 Wed>
- Where: UCAR Foothills Lab 4, Room 1201
For these IPython Notebooks we will be using a Python environment with the following libraries installed:
The easiest way to install these libraries is with conda. First install the conda package manager. Then,
conda config --add channels https://conda.binstar.org/rsignell
conda config --add channels https://conda.binstar.org/Unidata
conda create -n workshop python=2 numpy matplotlib cartopy ipython ipython-notebook netcdf4 owslib pyudl networkx
source activate workshop
git clone https://github.com/Unidata/unidata-python-workshop.git
cd unidata-python-workshop
