Visualize SIGnificant METeorological informations (SIGMET) and the ATC sectors impacted on 2D maps
Visualize SIGnificant METeorological informations (SIGMET) and the ATC sectors impacted on 2D maps with Python framework (geopandas, contextily, matplotlib…)
SIGMET data are loaded from json files or from a URL (NOAA web service)
Data are stored as GeoPandas dataframes
The map background is built with contextily
Plotting is realized with matplotlib
Example: SIGMETs over Europe on 16/03/2020
Example: French ATC sector volumes impacted by SIGMETs
Run the demo_sigmet_sectors notebook to see how to load and plot SIGMET and ATC sectors
pandas - Python Data Analysis Library
GeoPandas - GeoPandas is an open source project which extends the datatypes used by pandas to allow spatial operations on geometric types.
contextily - Context geo-tiles in Python
