Climate REF (Rapid Evaluation Framework)

PyPI version Documentation Status License Python Version

Status: This project is in active development. We expect to be ready for beta releases in Q2 2025.

The Rapid Evaluation Framework (REF) is a set of Python packages that provide the ability to manage the execution of calculations against climate datasets. The aim is to be able to evaluate climate data against a set of reference data in near-real time as datasets are published, and to update any produced data and figures as new datasets become available. This is somewhat analogous to a CI/CD pipeline for climate data.

Installation

pip install climate-ref

If you want to use the diagnostic providers for the Assessment Fast Track, you can install them with:

pip install "climate-ref[aft-providers]"

Quick Start

# Ingest some observation datasets
ref datasets fetch-data --registry obs4ref --output-directory datasets/obs4ref
ref datasets fetch-data --registry sample-data --output-directory datasets/sample-data

# Run metrics against your climate data
ref solve

Features

  • Real-time evaluation of climate datasets
  • Support for multiple metrics providers (PMP, ILAMB, ESMValTool)
  • Distributed processing capabilities
  • Extensible architecture for adding new metrics providers
  • Command-line interface for easy interaction
