earthkit-data is a format-agnostic Python interface for geospatial data with a focus on meteorology and climate science. It is the data handling component of earthkit.
earthkit-data makes it simple to read, inspect and slice data from a wide range of geospatial input types (GRIB, NetCDF and more) and transform them into familiar scientific Python objects (including numpy arrays, pandas dataframes, xarray datasets).
earthkit-data provides additional convenient methods for quickly inspecting certain features of your input data, such as data dimensionality, axes, coordinate reference systems and bounding boxes.
