GeoCAT-applications

The Geoscience Community Analysis Toolkit: Applications

GeoCAT Applications is a community resource managed by the GeoCAT team. Inspired by NCL Applications.

GeoCAT Applications is broken into two main sections:

  1. Applications
  2. NCL to Python

Applications

Applications is designed to be a quick reference to demonstrate capabilities within the scientific Python ecosystem that may be relevant to your geoscience workflows

NCL to Python

NCL to Python consists of pages that explain specifically how to achieve something that was possible in NCL in Python, including any algorithmic differences, guidance regarding replication under different conditions or circumstances, and any other relevant comparisons between the NCL and Python functionality

This is part of the GeoCAT team’s commitment to NCL and NSF NCAR’s Pivot to Python

These pages assume that the user has a working knowledge of NCL and are looking for transitional resources for specific functions. They also are not intended to be a comprehensive explanation of the Python recommendations, but rather a guide for users who are already familiar with the NCL function and are looking for “equivalent” Python code
