Unidata Software Badges

Unidata Badges

If you use Unidata software or data services on your web site or in your project, we would appreciate your including an acknowledgement, as discussed in Acknowledging Unidata. In addition to including citations in any academic articles you publish, one easy way to let people know about your use of Unidata services is to include a “badge” on your web site, with a visiual representation of the tool that's helped you and a link back to Unidata's web site for those who are interested in learning more.

Local Data Manager and Internet Data Distribution

If real-time data is arriving at your site automatically, chances are good that you're participating in Unidata's Internet Data Distribution (IDD) network, using Unidata's Local Data Manager (LDM) software. If you get useful data in this way, consider using one of these badges.

If you're retrieving data from a remote access server, you might be using at THREDDS Data Server from Unidata.

MetPy

MetPy is a collection of tools in Python for reading, visualizing, and performing calculations with weather data. MetPy aims to mesh well with the rest of the scientific Python ecosystem, including the Numpy, Scipy, and Matplotlib projects, adding functionality specific to meteorology. If you're using MetPy, consider using one of these badges.

THREDDS Data Server

The goal of Unidata's Thematic Real-time Environmental Distributed Data Services (THREDDS) is to provide students, educators and researchers with coherent access to a large collection of real-time and archived datasets from a variety of environmental data sources at a number of distributed server sites. The THREDDS Data Server (TDS) is a web server that provides metadata and data access for scientific datasets, using a variety of remote data access protocols. If you're providing data using a THREDDS Data Server, consider using one of these badges.

NetCDF-Java Library

The NetCDF Java library implements the Common Data Model (CDM) to interface netCDF files and other scientific data formats. This library is the basis of the THREDDS Data Server and numerous other applications. If you're incorporating the NetCDF-Java library into your own application, consider using one of these badges.

UDUnits

The UDUNITS package supports units of physical quantities. Its C library provides for arithmetic manipulation of units and for conversion of numeric values between compatible units. The package contains an extensive unit database, which is in XML format and user-extendable. The package also contains a command-line utility for investigating units and converting values. If you're using UDUnits, consider using one of these badges.
