batchee 1.5.2

Determine how to group together input files into batches for subsequent concatenation

Overview

Batchee is a Python package that intelligently groups filenames together, enabling efficient batch operations like concatenation.

What does it do?

Batchee analyzes filename patterns and groups related files together. For example (note that these are pseudo-real, not actual, TEMPO file names):

batchee TEMPO_NO2_L2_S006G01.nc TEMPO_NO2_L2_S006G02.nc TEMPO_NO2_L2_S007G08.nc TEMPO_NO2_L2_S007G09.nc

Output:

• TEMPO_NO2_L2_S006G01.nc, TEMPO_NO2_L2_S006G02.nc → Group 1 (scan 6)
• TEMPO_NO2_L2_S007G08.nc, TEMPO_NO2_L2_S007G09.nc → Group 2 (scan 7)

This enables batch processing operations on each group separately.
