Join in! Investigating analysis-ready data (ARD) strategies to increase impact of ocean and climate model archives at NCI

Thanks Thomas

A couple of ideas of this could look at to make data analysis-ready:

  • Analysis ready data is more important at higher resolutions and with larger volumes of data. For COSIMA, are there common 3d+daily ocean fields that folks struggle to analyse due to slow processing?
  • Can we spend time to make analysis more agnostic of the data-product used? Whilst lots of data products define their own names for variables, compliance with CF-standards is reasonably common, so can the cf-compliance be leveraged to access data through its CF attributes?
  • Its very common to need and find grids (and their attributes) when doing analysis, are there ways to attach these grids automatically to data products? (e.g. Encoding grid information · Issue #112 · ACCESS-NRI/access-nri-intake-catalog · GitHub)
