Exporting datasets¶
nctoolkit has a number of built in methods for exporting data to NetCDF, pandas dataframes and xarray datasets.
Save as a NetCDF¶
The method write_nc
lets users export a dataset to a NetCDF file. If
you want this to be a zipped NetCDF file use the zip
method before
to write_nc
. An example of usage is as follows:
import nctoolkit as nc
data = nc.open_data(infile)
data.mean()
data.zip()
data.write_nc(outfile)
Convert to xarray Dataset¶
The method to_xarray
lets users export a dataset to an xarray
dataset. An example of usage is as follows:
data = nc.open_data(infile)
data.annual_mean()
ds = data.to_xarray()
Convert to pandas dataframe¶
The method to_dataframe
lets users export a dataset to a pandas
dataframe.
data = nc.open_data(infile)
data.annual_mean()
df = data.to_dataframe()
