visusat 0.4.0

Satellite data visualisation toolkit for EUMETSAT and Copernicus Marine datasets.

🛰️ VisuSat project :

VisuSat is a Python toolkit for visualising, handling and processing satellite and oceanographic data, with dedicated pipelines for :

• EUMETSAT Data Store & Data Tailor
• Copernicus Marine Service (CMEMS)

It provides high-level wrappers around eumdac, copernicusmarine, xarray,
and advanced visualisation utilities using cartopy and matplotlib.

📘 Full documentation: https://visusat.readthedocs.io/en/latest/

🌍 Examples of Visualisations :

🌦️ EUMETSAT Data Store - AMVs (Atmospheric Motion Vectors)

Derived from MTG-FCI Level 2 wind products :

## 🌊 Copernicus Marine Service

Allows to download and visualize available datasets from Copernicus Marine datastore (https://data.marine.copernicus.eu/products).

Example of the the Sea Level Anomaly (in meter) from an aggregate of all available satellites data into Global Ocean Gridded Level4 product (link) :

🌐 Global Ocean Gridded Sea Level Anomaly (L4)

Product: SEALEVEL_GLO_PHY_L4_NRT_008_046

🌀 Global Ocean Physics (Mercator Ocean)

💡 Quick Start Examples

Here is a minimal example showing how to download and plot a Copernicus Marine dataset:

from visusat import copernicus

request = copernicus.CopernicusRequest(
    dataset_id="cmems_obs-sl_glo_phy-ssh_nrt_allsat-l4-duacs-0.125deg_P1D",
    variables=["sla", "err_sla"],
    minimum_longitude=1,
    maximum_longitude=359,
    minimum_latitude=-70,
    maximum_latitude=80,
    start_datetime="2025-10-22T00:00:00",
    end_datetime="2025-10-22T00:00:00",
    output_filename="duacs_sla.nc",
)

ds = copernicus.load_dataset(request, force=False)

# Plot all fields
copernicus.plot_fields(request, ds)

# Plot surface currents
copernicus.plot_currents(request, ds, vectors = False)

More examples are available in the examples/ folder.
