Glider tools is a Python 3.8+ package designed to process data from the first level of processing to a science ready dataset (delayed mode quality control). The package is designed to easily import data to a standard column format (numpy.ndarray or pandas.DataFrame). Cleaning and smoothing functions are flexible and can be applied as required by the user. We provide examples and demonstrate best practices as developed by the SOCCO Group, with early contributions from Polar Gliders at the University of Gothenburg. GliderTools includes contributions from VOTO. We aim to implement Best Practices developed by OceanGliders in the ongoing discussions.
Please cite the original publication of this package and the package itself.
Installation
Conda
To install the core package from conda-forge run: conda install -c conda-forge glidertools
PyPI
To install the core package run: pip install glidertools.
GitHub
Clone glidertools to your local machine: git clone https://github.com/GliderToolsCommunity/GliderTools
Change to the parent directory of GliderTools
Install glidertools with pip install -e ./GliderTools. This will allow changes you make locally, to be reflected when you import the package in Python
Recommended, but optional packages
There are some packages that are not installed by default, as these are large packages or can result in installation errors, resulting in failure to install GliderTools. These should install automatically with pip install package_name:
gsw: accurate density calculation (may fail in some cases)
pykrige: variogram plotting (installation generally works, except when bundled)
plotly: interactive 3D plots (large package)
