cmsaf - A Toolbox for CM SAF NetCDF Data
The Satellite Application Facility on Climate Monitoring
(CM SAF) is a ground segment of the European Organization for
the Exploitation of Meteorological Satellites (EUMETSAT) and
one of EUMETSATs Satellite Application Facilities. The CM SAF
contributes to the sustainable monitoring of the climate system
by providing essential climate variables related to the energy
and water cycle of the atmosphere (<https://www.cmsaf.eu>). It
is a joint cooperation of eight National Meteorological and
Hydrological Services. The 'cmsaf' R-package includes a 'shiny'
based interface for an easy application of the 'cmsafops' and
'cmsafvis' packages - the CM SAF R Toolbox. The Toolbox offers
an easy way to prepare, manipulate, analyse and visualize CM
SAF NetCDF formatted data. Other CF conform NetCDF data with
time, longitude and latitude dimension should be applicable,
but there is no guarantee for an error-free application. CM SAF
climate data records are provided for free via
(<https://wui.cmsaf.eu/safira>). Detailed information and test
data are provided on the CM SAF webpage
(<http://www.cmsaf.eu/R_toolbox>).
