pyhdf
MRossol opened this issue · comments
@mikebannis I can't seem to install pyhdf which will make pip installing NSRDB a pain. Any way we can remove pyhdf and instead access modis data by:
- converting from hdf4 to hdf5 using this tool:
nsrdb/nsrdb/utilities/file_utils.py
Line 167 in 930fcd0
- access using h5py which is already a dependency?
That shouldn't be a problem. What's your desired timeline on the change?
No rush, I think we will use the old code for 2020, so this can wait until end of the FY
pyhdf has been moved to a conditional import, only required if the nsrdb.albedo.modis module is being run:
