Python LDM feed handler

Python code to facilitate on-the-fly processing of products coming from an LDM feed.

Currently, this project is only used to handle the NEXRAD Level 2 data feed coming across the LDM data feed, with options to dump the raw data or repackage as a bz2 or gz compressed file. There are also options to upload to Amazon S3.

The core of this is based around Python 3.5's new async support, using the asyncio library. As such, only Python 3.5 will ever work here. One of the core features, though, is that a single python process is able to handle and process (using multiple threads) the full level 2 stream.

There are no supported APIs here yet, as right now this is just a monotlithic script. Eventually, this same infrastructure will be used for other LDM data feeds, at which point useful API separation/abstraction will present itself.

Requirements

  • Python >= 3.5
  • netCDF4-python (for goes-restitch.py)
  • psutil (for process-monitor.py)
