Analysis of self-describing gridded geoscience data with netCDF Operators (NCO)
The netCDF Operator (NCO) software facilitates manipulation and analysis of gridded 2 geoscience data stored in the self-describing netCDF format. NCO is optimized to efficiently 3 analyze large multi-dimensional datasets spanning many files. Researchers and data centers 4 often use NCO to analyze and serve observed and modeled geoscience data including satel5 lite observations and weather, air...
متن کاملBit Grooming: statistically accurate precision-preserving quantization with compression, evaluated in the netCDF Operators (NCO, v4.4.8+)
Geoscientific models and measurements generate false precision (scientifically meaningless data bits) that wastes storage space. False precision can mislead (by implying noise is signal) and be scientifically pointless, especially for measurements. By contrast, lossy compression can be both economical (save space) and heuristic (clarify data limitations) without compromising the scientific inte...
متن کاملA geoscience perspective on immersive 3D gridded data visualization
We describe visualization software, Visualizer, that was developed specifically for interactive, visual exploration in immersive virtual reality (VR) environments. Visualizer uses carefully optimized algorithms and data structures to support the high frame rates required for immersion and the real-time feedback required for interactivity. As an application developed for VR from the ground up, V...
متن کاملScaling Properties of Common Statistical Operators for Gridded Datasets
An accurate cost-model that accounts for dataset size and structure can help optimize geoscience data analysis. We develop and apply a computational model to estimate data analysis costs for arithmetic operations on gridded datasets typical of satelliteor climate model-origin. For these dataset geometries our model predicts data reduction scalings that agree with measurements of widely-used geo...
