pypromice is designed for processing and handling PROMICE automated weather station (AWS) data.
It is envisioned for pypromice to be the go-to toolbox for handling and processing PROMICE and GC-Net datasets. New releases of pypromice are uploaded alongside PROMICE AWS data releases to our Dataverse for transparency purposes and to encourage collaboration on improving our data. Please visit the pypromice readthedocs for more information.
If you intend to use PROMICE AWS data and/or pypromice in your work, please cite these publications below, along with any other applicable PROMICE publications where possible:

The latest release of pypromice can installed using pip:
$ pip install pypromice
For the most up-to-date version, pypromice can be installed directly from the repo:
$ pip install --upgrade git+http://github.com/GEUS-Glaciology-and-Climate/pypromice.git
pypromice can be ran in an environment with the pypromice repo:
$ conda create --name pypromice python=3.8
$ conda activate pypromice
$ git clone [email protected]:GEUS-Glaciology-and-Climate/pypromice.git
$ cd pypromice/
$ pip install .
Additional packages are required if you wish to use pypromice's post-processing functionality.
eccodes is the official package for BUFR encoding and decoding. Try firstly to install with conda-forge like so:
$ conda install -c conda-forge eccodes
If the environment cannot resolve the eccodes installation then follow the steps documented here to download eccodes and then install eccodes' python bindings using pip.
$ pip3 install eccodes-python
