Open Source Scripting for Geo-Scientific Data Processing and Analysis
Documentation
Modules for Scientific Computing and Visualization
SciPy/NumPy
pylab
- Matplotlib/pylab Plotting functions with a high degree of Matlab compatibility 
- http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/basemap/doc/html/ Matplotlib Basemap 
To enable Basemap (on ZMAW Linux ia32/x64 and solaris10) you have to type before starting Python2.4.4:
module load Python/2.4.4
or to start Python2.6.2 (recommended):
module load R/2.7.0 module load Python/2.6.2
In Python you can import the Basemap module by
from mpl_toolkits.basemap import Basemap
GDAL
- GDAL - Geospatial Data Abstraction Library for various satellite data formats 
To enable GDAL use
module load gdal
from osgeo import gdal
PyNGL PyNio
- PyNGL/PyNIO Python interface to NCAR Command Language 
- Scientific visualization and data formats (netCDF, HDF, GRIB etc.)
To enable PyNGL (on ZMAW Linux ia32/x64 and solaris10) you have to type
module load PyNGL/1.2.0
Please note, that Nio should be on the top of the list, e.g.
import Nio from osgeo import gdal import pylab as pl
Python Interface to GrADS
RPy
- RPy (R from Python) Statistical computing and graphics 
F2PY: Fortran to Python interface generator
Calling Fortran code from python is easy! Create a file hello.f:
C File hello.f
      subroutine foo (a)
      integer a
      print*, "Hello from Fortran!"
      print*, "a=",a
      endRun f2py -c -m hello hello.f
Now in IPython try:
In [1]: import hello In [2]: hello.foo(4) Hello from Fortran! a= 4
Example taken from
Topical Modules
- Seawater is a package for computing properties of seawater (UNESCO 1981 and UNESCO 1983). 
- Escript/Finley: Fast Finite Elements for Partial Differential Equations 
More topical software can be found at http://scipy.org/Topical_Software
Installation in the home directory
The seawater module is installed on the ZMAW machines for Python 2.6. Use
module load Python/2.6.2
to set up the environment. In the following it is explained how to install the module for the case if it would be not available or if a different version of python has to be used.
Installation of module seawater in directory ~/modules
python setup.py install --prefix=~/modules/
Usage
import sys,os
home=os.getenv('HOME')
genpath=home+'/modules/lib/python2.4/site-packages/'
if not sys.path.__contains__(genpath):
    sys.path.append(genpath)
from seawater import *
Download
A basic system for scientific computing consists of Python, ipython, numpy/scipy, pylab, and an editor of your choice
- Editor (a nice editor for Windows user, if you don't like to install xemacs) 
The python(x,y) distribution contains all that above.
