This is a package for creation and handling of Discrete Global Grids or Point
collections. We hope extend the interface also to projected grids(images) in the
future.

The full documentation is available at http://pygeogrids.readthedocs.org/.

Installation
============

This package should be installable through pip:

.. code::

    pip install pygeogrids

Features
========

For now the main features are:

-  Creation of grids
-  Nearest neighbor search
-  conversion of grid piont indices to lat, lon
-  Storage of grids and loading grids from CF-compatible netCDF files
-  Calculation of lookup tables between grids
-  Support for different Geodetic Datums using pyproj.

Contribute
==========

We are happy if you want to contribute. Please raise an issue explaining what
is missing or if you find a bug. We will also gladly accept pull requests
against our master branch for new features or bug fixes.

Development setup
-----------------

For Development we recommend a ``conda`` environment. You can create one
including test dependencies and debugger by running
``conda env create -f environment.yml``. This will create a new ``pygeogrids``
environment which you can activate by using ``source activate pygeogrids``.

Guidelines
----------

If you want to contribute please follow these steps:

- Fork the pygeogrids repository to your account
- Clone the repository
- make a new feature branch from the pygeogrids master branch
- Add your feature
- Please include tests for your contributions in one of the test directories.
  We use py.test so a simple function called test_my_feature is enough
- submit a pull request to our master branch
