This work was done as part of the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) Summer Internship in Parallel Computational Science (SIParCS)
This repo is a series of workflow tests for various cloud-hosted data access methods. Additional material, past presentations, posters, and interactive code tutorials are available here: https://lucassterzinger.com/2021-siparcs-poster/
Tests were performed on the Microsoft Planetary Computer with data hosted on Azure Blob object storage. Both Planetary Computer and the data used were performed in the EU-West region.
More data for testing may be added in the future
