earthkit

Earthkit is a new open-source Python project led by the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF), providing powerful tools for speeding up weather and climate science workflows by simplifying data access, processing, analysis, visualisation and much more.

earthkit offers multiple interoperable software components built on top of well-established open-source Python libraries like numpy, pandas and matplotlib.

We use earthkit-data to load climate data from different sources and earthkit-transform to aggregate climate data to DHIS2 organisation units (see example). earthkit-plots can be used to visualise weather and climate data.
