ARM Py-ART

The Python ARM Radar Toolkit, Py-ART, is an open source Python module containing a growing collection of weather radar algorithms and utilities build on top of the Scientific Python stack and distributed under the 3-Clause BSD license. Py-ART is used by the Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) Climate Research Facility for working with data from a number of precipitation and cloud radars, but has been designed so that it can be used by others in the radar and atmospheric communities to examine, processes, and analyse data from many types of weather radars.

Open Source Weather Radar Virtual Machine

This projects creates a Linux Virtual Machine image (VM) with a number of open source weather radar software packages (BALTRAD, Py-ART, Radx, RSL, and wradlib) which can be run using VirtualBox on a number of host OSes.

The creation of this VM has been tested on Ubuntu 12.04 and Mac OS X 10.9 hosts running vagrant 1.5.4. Other host should be supported if a recent version of vagrant (1.3+) and VirtualBox can be installed.
