Documentation
Supported Products
This version supports the following products:
- ERA-Interim
Installation
For installation we recommend Miniconda. So please install it according to
the official installation instructions. As soon as you have the conda
command in your shell you can continue.
The following script will download and install all the needed packages.
conda env create -f environment.yml source activate ecmwf_models pip install ecmwf_models
This script should work on Linux or OSX and uses the environment.yml file
included in this repository. On Windows the reading of grib files is not
available at the moment. On Windows a solution would be to download the ECMWF
data in netCDF format instead. We do not yet support that format but would love
pull requests for adding support.
