Repository for reading the dataset European Cloud Cover (ECC). Available at https://datasets.simula.no/ecc-dataset/. The repositoriy also contains necessary code and examples if you wish to regridd you own cloud cover.

Examples

  • Read_ECC.ipynb - Notebook for reading the dataset into a pandas dataframe.
  • utils.py - utilities for reading data.
  • environment.yml - specifications of package necessary to run the notebooks.
  • calc_fractional_cover.py - contains functionality used when regridding data.
  • Regridd_NC_GRB_to_ECC.ipynb - Notebook with examples on regridding data originating on both netcdft and grb format.
  • Verifying_regridding.ipynb - Notebook with example verifying that the regridding detected the correct pixels.

How to get started/Project Enviornment

git clone https://github.com/simula/european-cloud-cover.git # clone project
conda env create -f environment.yml # create project enviornment 
conda activate ECC # actovate project enviornment
jupyter lab # launch jupyter lab

Download the data

Go to https://datasets.simula.no/ecc-dataset/ and download the dataset as zip-file. Use the following command to create a empty directory at the same level as you cloned ECC.

mkdir ECC_DATA
