Earth system model benchmarking

Experimental version under development

ILAMB - International Land Model Benchmarking

The python package designed to help confront earth system models with reference data products, and then present the results in a hierarchical set of webpages. Please see ilamb.org where we have details about the datasets we use, the results we catalog, and the methods we employ.

This package is being developed and not currently listed in PyPI or conda-forge. You may install it directly from this repository:

pip install git+https://github.com/rubisco-sfa/ilamb3

The above command will install the latest code from the repository. We will make releases as new methods and functionality are ready, updating the documentation as we develop. To install a specific version of the code, append it to the URL. The following will install the released version v2025.5.20:

pip install git+https://github.com/rubisco-sfa/ilamb3@v2025.5.20

Eventually this package will replace the current ILAMB package. Consult the documentation for more information on current status and to see what is functional.
