Structured and machine-readable experiment metadata enable various analysis and visualizations of the stored data and metadata, which may not be easily achievable with unstructured metadata such as free texts. On top of that, structured metadata increases the findability and re-usability of said metadata (and the data to which the metadata is attached) for other purposes following the spirits...
PostWRF is an open-source software toolkit to facilitate the main visualization tasks and data handling for the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model outputs. The toolkit is mostly written in NCL and Shell, with a namelist that resembles the WRF or WPS namelists. Besides the visualizations, PostWRF provides WRF-NetCDF to GeoTIFF conversion for GIS applications, ERA5-NetCDF reanalysis...
Helmholtz-Zentrum Hereon operates multiple X-ray diffraction (XRD) experiments for external users and while the experiments are very similar, their analysis is not. Pydidas [1, 2] is a software package developed for the batch analysis of X-ray diffraction data. It is published as open source and intended to be widely reusable.
Because the wide range of scientific questions tackled with the...
