1. Data Download#
Now let’s download a 2A PMW product over a couple of hours.
[3]:
# Specify the time period you are interested in
start_time = datetime.datetime.strptime("2020-08-01 12:00:00", "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S")
end_time = datetime.datetime.strptime("2020-08-02 12:00:00", "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S")
# Specify the product and product type
product = "2A-MHS-METOPB" # "2A-GMI", "2A-SSMIS-F17", ...
product_type = "RS"
# Specify the version
version = 5 # 7
[4]:
# Download the data
gpm.download(
product=product,
product_type=product_type,

gpm_api_product: 2A-MHS-METOPBYou can list variables, coordinates and dimensions with the following methods
[8]:
# Available variables
variables = list(ds.data_vars)
print("Available variables: ", variables)
# Available coordinates
coords = list(ds.coords)
print("Available coordinates: ", coords)
# Available dimensions
dims = list(ds.dims)
print("Available dimensions: ", dims)
Available variables: ['pixelStatus', 'qualityFlag', 'L1CqualityFlag', 'surfaceTypeIndex', 'totalColumnWaterVaporIndex', 'CAPE', 'temp2mIndex', 'sunGlintAngle', 'probabilityOfPrecip', 'spare2', 'surfacePrecipitation', 'frozenPrecipitation', 'convectivePrecipitation', 'rainWaterPath', 'cloudWaterPath', 'iceWaterPath', 'mostLikelyPrecipitation', 'precip1stTertial', 'precip2ndTertial', 'profileTemp2mIndex', 'profileNumber', 'profileScale', 'SCorientation', 'SClatitude', 'SClongitude', 'SCaltitude', 'FractionalGranuleNumber']
Available coordinates: ['lon', 'lat', 'time', 'gpm_id', 'gpm_granule_id', 'gpm_cross_track_id', 'gpm_along_track_id', 'crsWGS84']
Available dimensions: ['cross_track', 'along_track', 'nspecies']
As you see, every variable has a prefix which indicates the group in the original HDF file where the variable is stored. You can remove the prefix when opening the dataset by specifying prefix_group=False. You can also directly load only a subset of variables, by specifying the variables argument.

3. Dataset Manipulations#
Now, let’s first have a look at the methods provided by GPM-API
[14]:
variable = "surfacePrecipitation"
da = ds[variable]
print("xr.Dataset gpm methods:", dir(ds.gpm))
print("")
print("xr.DataArray gpm methods:", dir(da.gpm))
xr.Dataset gpm methods: ['__class__', '__delattr__', '__dict__', '__dir__', '__doc__', '__eq__', '__format__', '__ge__', '__getattribute__', '__gt__', '__hash__', '__init__', '__init_subclass__', '__le__', '__lt__', '__module__', '__ne__', '__new__', '__reduce__', '__reduce_ex__', '__repr__', '__setattr__', '__sizeof__', '__str__', '__subclasshook__', '__weakref__', '_obj', 'crop', 'crop_by_continent', 'crop_by_country', 'end_time', 'extent', 'frequency_variables', 'get_crop_slices_by_continent', 'get_crop_slices_by_country', 'get_crop_slices_by_extent', 'get_slices_contiguous_granules', 'get_slices_contiguous_scans', 'get_slices_regular', 'get_slices_regular_time', 'get_slices_valid_geolocation', 'has_contiguous_scans', 'has_missing_granules', 'has_regular_time', 'has_valid_geolocation', 'is_grid', 'is_orbit', 'is_regular', 'is_spatial_2d', 'is_spatial_3d', 'plot_image', 'plot_map', 'plot_map_mesh', 'plot_map_mesh_centroids', 'plot_swath_lines', 'plot_transect_line', 'pyresample_area', 'spatial_2d_variables', 'spatial_3d_variables', 'start_time', 'subset_by_time', 'subset_by_time_slice', 'title', 'variables']
xr.DataArray gpm methods: ['__class__', '__delattr__', '__dict__', '__dir__', '__doc__', '__eq__', '__format__', '__ge__', '__getattribute__', '__gt__', '__hash__', '__init__', '__init_subclass__', '__le__', '__lt__', '__module__', '__ne__', '__new__', '__reduce__', '__reduce_ex__', '__repr__', '__setattr__', '__sizeof__', '__str__', '__subclasshook__', '__weakref__', '_obj', 'crop', 'crop_by_continent', 'crop_by_country', 'end_time', 'extent', 'frequency_variables', 'get_crop_slices_by_continent', 'get_crop_slices_by_country', 'get_crop_slices_by_extent', 'get_slices_contiguous_granules', 'get_slices_contiguous_scans', 'get_slices_regular', 'get_slices_regular_time', 'get_slices_valid_geolocation', 'get_slices_var_between', 'get_slices_var_equals', 'has_contiguous_scans', 'has_missing_granules', 'has_regular_time', 'has_valid_geolocation', 'is_grid', 'is_orbit', 'is_regular', 'is_spatial_2d', 'is_spatial_3d', 'plot_image', 'plot_map', 'plot_map_mesh', 'plot_map_mesh_centroids', 'plot_swath_lines', 'plot_transect_line', 'pyresample_area', 'spatial_2d_variables', 'spatial_3d_variables', 'start_time', 'subset_by_time', 'subset_by_time_slice', 'title', 'variables']
The GPM products are either ORBIT (i.e. PMW and RADAR) or GRID (i.e. IMERG) based. You can check the support of the data with the methods is_grid and is_orbit.
[15]:
print("Is GPM ORBIT data?: ", ds.gpm.is_orbit)
print("Is GPM GRID data?: ", ds.gpm.is_grid)
Is GPM ORBIT data?: True
Is GPM GRID data?: False
To check Whether the loaded GPM PMW product has contiguous scans, you can use:
[16]:
print(ds.gpm.has_contiguous_scans)
print(ds.gpm.is_regular)
True
True
In case there are non-contiguous scans, you can obtain the along-track slices over which the dataset is regular:
[17]:
list_slices = ds.gpm.get_slices_contiguous_scans()
print(list_slices)
[slice(0, 32399, None)]
You can then select a regular portion of the dataset with:
[18]:
slc = list_slices[0]
print(slc)
slice(0, 32399, None)
[19]:
ds_regular = ds.isel(along_track=slc)
ds_regular.gpm.is_regular
[19]:
True
To instead check if the xr.Dataset have just the 2D spatial dimensions, you can use:
[20]:
ds.gpm.is_spatial_2d
[20]:
True
4. Product Visualization#
The GPM-API provides two ways of displaying the data: - The plot_map method plot the data in a geographic projection using the Cartopy pcolormesh method - The plot_image method plot the data as an image using the Maplotlib imshow method
Let’s start by plotting the PMW scan in the geographic space
[21]:
da = ds[variable].isel(along_track=slice(0,8000))
da.gpm.plot_map()
[21]:
<cartopy.mpl.geocollection.GeoQuadMesh at 0x7f0c22889b70>
and now as an image, in “swath” view:
[22]:
da.gpm.plot_image()
[22]:
<matplotlib.image.AxesImage at 0x7f0c221a8610>
To facilitate the creation of a figure title, GPM-API also provide a title method:
[23]:
# Title for a single-timestep dataset
print(ds[variable].gpm.title(add_timestep=True))
print(ds[variable].gpm.title(add_timestep=False))
2A-MHS-METOPB SurfacePrecipitation (2020-08-01 23:59)
2A-MHS-METOPB SurfacePrecipitation
To instead zoom on a specific regions of a plot_map figure, you can use the axis method set_extent. Note that render the image with this approach can be quite slow, because plot_map plots all the data, and then restrict the figure extent over the area of interest. For a more efficient approach, see section 6. Dataset cropping.
[24]:
from gpm.utils.geospatial import get_country_extent
title = ds.gpm.title(add_timestep=False)
extent = get_country_extent("United States")
print("Extent: ", extent)
da = ds[variable].isel(along_track=slice(0, 8000))
p = da.gpm.plot_map()
_ = p.axes.set_extent(extent)
_ = p.axes.set_title(label=title)
Extent: (-171.99111060299998, -66.76465999999999, 18.71619, 71.5577635769)
You can also customize the geographic projection, by specifying the wished Cartopy projection. The available projections are listed here
[25]:
import cartopy.crs as ccrs
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
from gpm.visualization.plot import plot_cartopy_background
# Define some figure options
dpi = 100
figsize = (12, 10)
# Example of polar Cartopy projection
crs_proj = ccrs.Orthographic(180, -90)
# Subset the data for fast rendering
da = ds[variable].isel(along_track=slice(0, 8000))
# Create the map
fig, ax = plt.subplots(subplot_kw={"projection": crs_proj}, figsize=figsize, dpi=dpi)
plot_cartopy_background(ax)
da.gpm.plot_map(ax=ax)
ax.set_global()
It is possible to further customize these figures in multiply ways. For example by specifying the own colormap:
[26]:
da.gpm.plot_map(cmap="Spectral", vmin=0.1, vmax=100)
[26]:
<cartopy.mpl.geocollection.GeoQuadMesh at 0x7f0c21adf070>
5. Dataset Cropping#
GPM-API provides methods to easily spatially subset orbits by extent, country or continent. Note however, that an area can be crossed by multiple orbits. In other words, multiple orbit slices in along-track direction can intersect the area of interest. The method get_crop_slices_by_extent, get_crop_slices_by_country and get_crop_slices_by_continent enable to retrieve the orbit portions intersecting the area of interest.
[27]:
# Subset the data for fast rendering
da = ds[variable].isel(along_track=slice(0, 8000))
# Crop by extent
extent = (-172, -67, 19, 72) # (xmin, xmax, ymin, ymax)
list_isel_dict = da.gpm.get_crop_slices_by_extent(extent)
print(list_isel_dict)
for isel_dict in list_isel_dict:
da_subset = da.isel(isel_dict)
slice_title = da_subset.gpm.title(add_timestep=True)
p = da_subset.gpm.plot_map()
p.axes.set_extent(extent)
p.axes.set_title(label=slice_title)
[{'along_track': slice(3770, 4117, None)}, {'along_track': slice(6029, 6398, None)}]
[28]:
# Crop by country
