"""Writer for netCDF4/CF.
Example usage
-------------
The CF writer saves datasets in a Scene as `CF-compliant`_ netCDF file. Here is an example with MSG SEVIRI data in HRIT
format:
>>> from satpy import Scene
>>> import glob
>>> filenames = glob.glob('data/H*201903011200*')
>>> scn = Scene(filenames=filenames, reader='seviri_l1b_hrit')
>>> scn.load(['VIS006', 'IR_108'])
>>> scn.save_datasets(writer='cf', datasets=['VIS006', 'IR_108'], filename='seviri_test.nc',
exclude_attrs=['raw_metadata'])
* You can select the netCDF backend using the ``engine`` keyword argument. If `None` if follows
:meth:`~xarray.Dataset.to_netcdf` engine choices with a preference for 'netcdf4'.
* For datasets with area definition you can exclude lat/lon coordinates by setting ``include_lonlats=False``.
If the area has a projected CRS, units are assumed to be in metre. If the
area has a geographic CRS, units are assumed to be in degrees. The writer
does not verify that the CRS is supported by the CF conventions. One
commonly used projected CRS not supported by the CF conventions is the
equirectangular projection, such as EPSG 4087.
* By default non-dimensional coordinates (such as scanline timestamps) are prefixed with the corresponding
dataset name. This is because they are likely to be different for each dataset. If a non-dimensional
coordinate is identical for all datasets, the prefix can be removed by setting ``pretty=True``.
* Some dataset names start with a digit, like AVHRR channels 1, 2, 3a, 3b, 4 and 5. This doesn't comply with CF
https://cfconventions.org/Data/cf-conventions/cf-conventions-1.7/build/ch02s03.html. These channels are prefixed
with ``"CHANNEL_"`` by default. This can be controlled with the variable `numeric_name_prefix` to `save_datasets`.
Setting it to `None` or `''` will skip the prefixing.
Grouping
~~~~~~~~
All datasets to be saved must have the same projection coordinates ``x`` and ``y``. If a scene holds datasets with
different grids, the CF compliant workaround is to save the datasets to separate files. Alternatively, you can save
datasets with common grids in separate netCDF groups as follows:
>>> scn.load(['VIS006', 'IR_108', 'HRV'])
>>> scn.save_datasets(writer='cf', datasets=['VIS006', 'IR_108', 'HRV'],
filename='seviri_test.nc', exclude_attrs=['raw_metadata'],
groups={'visir': ['VIS006', 'IR_108'], 'hrv': ['HRV']})
Note that the resulting file will not be fully CF compliant.
Dataset Encoding
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Dataset encoding can be specified in two ways:
1) Via the ``encoding`` keyword argument of ``save_datasets``:
>>> my_encoding = {
... 'my_dataset_1': {
... 'compression': 'zlib',
... 'complevel': 9,
... 'scale_factor': 0.01,
... 'add_offset': 100,
... 'dtype': np.int16
... },
... 'my_dataset_2': {
... 'compression': None,
... 'dtype': np.float64
... }
... }
>>> scn.save_datasets(writer='cf', filename='encoding_test.nc', encoding=my_encoding)
2) Via the ``encoding`` attribute of the datasets in a scene. For example
>>> scn['my_dataset'].encoding = {'compression': 'zlib'}
>>> scn.save_datasets(writer='cf', filename='encoding_test.nc')
See the `xarray encoding documentation`_ for all encoding options.
.. note::
Chunk-based compression can be specified with the ``compression`` keyword
since
.. code::
netCDF4-1.6.0
libnetcdf-4.9.0
xarray-2022.12.0
The ``zlib`` keyword is deprecated. Make sure that the versions of
these modules are all above or all below that reference. Otherwise,
compression might fail or be ignored silently.
Attribute Encoding
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In the above examples, raw metadata from the HRIT files have been excluded. If you want all attributes to be included,
just remove the ``exclude_attrs`` keyword argument. By default, dict-type dataset attributes, such as the raw metadata,
are encoded as a string using json. Thus, you can use json to decode them afterwards:
>>> import xarray as xr
>>> import json
>>> # Save scene to nc-file
>>> scn.save_datasets(writer='cf', datasets=['VIS006', 'IR_108'], filename='seviri_test.nc')
>>> # Now read data from the nc-file
>>> ds = xr.open_dataset('seviri_test.nc')
>>> raw_mda = json.loads(ds['IR_108'].attrs['raw_metadata'])
>>> print(raw_mda['RadiometricProcessing']['Level15ImageCalibration']['CalSlope'])
[0.020865 0.0278287 0.0232411 0.00365867 0.00831811 0.03862197
0.12674432 0.10396091 0.20503568 0.22231115 0.1576069 0.0352385]
Alternatively it is possible to flatten dict-type attributes by setting ``flatten_attrs=True``. This is more human
readable as it will create a separate nc-attribute for each item in every dictionary. Keys are concatenated with
underscore separators. The `CalSlope` attribute can then be accessed as follows:
>>> scn.save_datasets(writer='cf', datasets=['VIS006', 'IR_108'], filename='seviri_test.nc',
flatten_attrs=True)
>>> ds = xr.open_dataset('seviri_test.nc')
>>> print(ds['IR_108'].attrs['raw_metadata_RadiometricProcessing_Level15ImageCalibration_CalSlope'])
[0.020865 0.0278287 0.0232411 0.00365867 0.00831811 0.03862197
0.12674432 0.10396091 0.20503568 0.22231115 0.1576069 0.0352385]
This is what the corresponding ``ncdump`` output would look like in this case:
.. code-block:: none
$ ncdump -h test_seviri.nc
...
IR_108:raw_metadata_RadiometricProcessing_Level15ImageCalibration_CalOffset = -1.064, ...;
IR_108:raw_metadata_RadiometricProcessing_Level15ImageCalibration_CalSlope = 0.021, ...;
IR_108:raw_metadata_RadiometricProcessing_MPEFCalFeedback_AbsCalCoeff = 0.021, ...;
...
