A. Python package: Python Indian Weather Radar Toolkit (pyiwr)
The Python Indian Weather Radar Toolkit, abbreviated as "pyiwr," is an advanced open-source Python library designed to handle data from the dual-polarization Indian Doppler Weather Radar (DWR). pyiwr toolkit serves as a tool for efficiently parsing raw data from the Indian dual-polarization DWR and restructuring the open-source radar data into Py-ART compatible NetCDF files. Apart from this, the toolkit offers a range of robust utilities and visualization functions that facilitate the manipulation and analysis of weather radar data. This module enhances the accessibility and compatibility of radar data, enabling researchers, weather forecasters, and hydrologists to efficiently work with India DWR data (particularly ISRO-DWR) that fosters advancements in weather radar research and applications. The open availability of pyiwr's source code on GitHub ensures that researchers and practitioners can not only access the toolkit but also contribute to its ongoing development.
