About

A python based gui visualization tool for netcdf outputs of the SCHISM hydrodynamic model (SCHISM: http://ccrm.vims.edu/schismweb/). Intended for a quick view of simulation results;

1. displays horizontal fields of variables stored at grid nodes - simplified as averages at triangles (quads are splitted)
2. allows to extract time series, profiles and transects (nearest neighbour interpolation only)
3. displays difference between different model simulation conducted on same grid with same nspool and ihfskip settings.

Compatability with schism output

The program is compatible with the Schism multiple variable output written with parallel io (ou2d_.nc, zCoordinates_*.nc, ...) and the combined schout_.nc style format if the wetting and drying information "wetdry_node", "wetdry_elem" is contained in the schout.nc files.

Prerequisites

The python code relies on a python anaconda installation with packages as in requirements.txt for netcdf handling, which is typically already available in different hpc environments.
