python-awips's Introduction

AWIPS Python Data Access Framework

About

The python-awips package provides a data access framework for requesting grid and geometry datasets from an AWIPS EDEX server. AWIPS and python-awips packages are released and maintained by UCAR's Unidata Program Center in Boulder, Colorado.

Install

pip install python-awips

or
conda install -c conda-forge python-awips

Conda Environment

git clone https://github.com/Unidata/python-awips.git
cd python-awips
conda env create -f environment.yml
conda activate python3-awips
jupyter notebook examples

python-awips's Issues

Numpy Deprication (WWA Notebook)

Section 7.2 of the WWA notebook is throwing the following warning:

/Users/scarter/opt/miniconda3/envs/python3-awips-latest/lib/python3.10/site-packages/numpy/core/fromnumeric.py:1859: ShapelyDeprecationWarning: __len__ for multi-part geometries is deprecated and will be removed in Shapely 2.0. Check the length of the `geoms` property instead to get the  number of parts of a multi-part geometry.
  return asanyarray(a).ravel(order=order)
/Users/scarter/opt/miniconda3/envs/python3-awips-latest/lib/python3.10/site-packages/numpy/core/fromnumeric.py:1859: ShapelyDeprecationWarning: Iteration over multi-part geometries is deprecated and will be removed in Shapely 2.0. Use the `geoms` property to access the constituent parts of a multi-part geometry.
  return asanyarray(a).ravel(order=order)

Not entirely sure where this is coming from but I assume it might have to do with either line 49 and/or the for loop at line 54

qpid-python incompatible with Python 3

Renders DataNotificationLayer unusable.

Socket.gaierror on GetSatelliteIR

socket.gaierror: [Errno 8] nodename nor servname provided, or not known

Followed all the install steps, dowloaded the repo, called
python setup.py build
python setup.py install

Used Sublime to create Python file containing this code

#!/awips2/python/bin/python
from awips.dataaccess import DataAccessLayer
import numpy as np

request = DataAccessLayer.newDataRequest()
request.setDatatype("satellite")
request.setLocationNames("East CONUS")
request.setParameters("Imager 6.7-6.5 micron IR (WV)")

t = DataAccessLayer.getAvailableTimes(request)
print t[-1].getRefTime()

response = DataAccessLayer.getGridData(request, times=[t[-1]])
print response
data = response[0]

print 'Units are in', data.getUnit()
lon,lat = data.getLatLonCoords()

print 'Parameter we requested is',data.getParameter()
print data.getRawData()

Any way to filter metar obs?

Is there any way to filter metar obs so that the station models do not overlap when plotted, like how they plot in CAVE?

Also, I see how to get the nexrad level 3 data, but I was wondering if there was a way to access the national composites that you can view in CAVE. They don't seem to be listed with the radar sites.

'bufrua' and 'obs' data setParameters and setLocationNames differ

Per the examples, requesting bufrua and obs data is relatively the same, although setting location name and parameters are different. For bufrua, a user would set parameters with say tpMan while obs takes the full name, temperature. This also exists when setting locations:

Data type	station	parameter
bufrua	72230	tpMan
obs	KOUN	temperature
grid	OUN	unknown

Can we standardize this?

argparse not needed as dependency

argparse is available for Python 2.7 and >= 3.2, so there's no need to list it in setup.py.

Storing Data to Edex

I've found code and examples to store HDF5 data using pypies both in here and in the pythonPackages folder of the AWIPS2 github, and can successfully store the hdf5 data.

However, I have not found code or examples on how to update the database entries so that EDEX knows that the data is available for viewing. Is this possible using this package? Is it even possible at all?

Thanks,
Kelton.

Updating the DataTime printout

It would be helpful if the default print string for a dataTime object also included the forecast hour if that's available.
It does seem like the current print string logic tries to accomplish this, but it doesn't seem to be working in practice.

To replicate, use any of the model notebooks and print out a DataTime object that's used to request the data, you'll see it doesn't show the Forecast Hour, which can be confusing because two different DataTime objects can print out the same string.

DataAccessLayer.getAvailableTimes(request, True) return empty array?

`from awips.dataaccess import DataAccessLayer
DataAccessLayer.changeEDEXHost("edex-cloud.unidata.ucar.edu")
request = DataAccessLayer.newDataRequest()
dataTypes = DataAccessLayer.getSupportedDatatypes()
request.setDatatype('grid')

Print availale grids

available_grids = DataAccessLayer.getAvailableLocationNames(request)
available_grids.sort()

Get desired grids

request.setLocationNames('RAP40')
request.setParameters('GH')
#request.setParameters(["T","P","GH","RH","USTM","VSTM"])
request.setLevels("500.0MB")
#request.setLevels(["1000.0MB","850.0MB","700.0MB","500.0MB","300.0MB"])
cycles = DataAccessLayer.getAvailableTimes(request, True)
times = DataAccessLayer.getAvailableTimes(request)
#cycle = datetime.strptime("4/10/2017 12:00", "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S")
#cycle = "2017-10-04 00:00:00"
print(cycles)
response = DataAccessLayer.getGridData(request, cycles[0])
`

fails on last line of above snippet because 0 is out of bounds for an array of length 0.

print(cycles) returns []. This is consistent for multiple models/arguments for request.setLocationNames

Tried to work around by writing my cycle as a string but it requires a time object so that was a no go.

Thanks,
Ryan
