gdm

Platform agnostic data model for profiling ocean gliders.

Introduction

gdm is a python software package for parsing raw glider data files into pandas DataFrames and xarray Datasets, providing a NetCDF-like data structure containing CF, ACDD and IOOS-compliant global attributes and data variables. The resulting data structures are inputs into a number of the processing packages and toolbox provided by the oceanographic community as well as provide simple methods to export the processed data sets to CF, ACDD and IOOS Metadata Profile compliant NetCDF files.
