``viresclient`` is a Python package which provides access to products (including on-demand processing) from two of ESA's Earth Explorer missions: `Swarm`_ and `Aeolus`_. This service is provided for ESA by EOX_. For enquiries about the service and problems with accessing your account, please email info@vires.services. For help with usage, please email ashley.smith@ed.ac.uk or `raise an issue on GitHub`_.

There are two VirES services (Virtual environments for Earth Scientists) which *viresclient* can communicate with:

- *VirES for Swarm:*

  - Interact with the `VirES for Swarm graphical interface (web client) <https://vires.services>`_
  - Browse code recipes: `Swarm Notebooks <https://notebooks.vires.services>`_
  - JupyterHub: `Swarm VRE (Virtual Research Environment) <https://vre.vires.services>`_
  - Swarm data documentation: `Swarm handbook <https://swarmhandbook.earth.esa.int>`_
  - *Note that this service is not only for Swarm*:

    - Multi-mission products including magnetometry from CHAMP, CryoSat-2, and more
    - INTERMAGNET ground magnetometers via the ``AUX_OBS`` collection
    - Custom geomagnetic model evaluation

  - Read more about the ecosystem: `Python tools for ESA's Swarm mission: VirES for Swarm and surrounding ecosystem <https://doi.org/10.3389/fspas.2022.1002697>`_

- *VirES for Aeolus:*

  - Interact with the `VirES for Aeolus graphical interface (web client) <https://aeolus.services>`_
  - Browse code recipes: `Aeolus Notebooks <https://notebooks.aeolus.services>`_
  - JupterHub: `Aeolus VRE <https://vre.aeolus.services>`_
  - `Aeolus data documentation <https://earth.esa.int/eogateway/missions/aeolus/data>`_

Data and models are processed on demand on the VirES server - a combination of measurements from any time interval can be accessed. These are the same data that can be accessed by the VirES GUI. *viresclient* handles the returned data to allow direct loading as a single pandas.DataFrame_, or xarray.Dataset_.

.. _pandas.DataFrame: https://pandas.pydata.org/pandas-docs/stable/dsintro.html#dataframe
.. _xarray.Dataset: http://xarray.pydata.org/en/stable/data-structures.html#dataset

.. code-block:: python

 from viresclient import SwarmRequest

 # Set up connection with server
 request = SwarmRequest()
 # Set collection to use
 # - See https://viresclient.readthedocs.io/en/latest/available_parameters.html
 request.set_collection("SW_OPER_MAGA_LR_1B")
 # Set mix of products to fetch:
 #  measurements (variables from the given collection)
 #  models (magnetic model predictions at spacecraft sampling points)
 #  auxiliaries (variables available with any collection)
 # Optionally set a sampling rate different from the original data
 request.set_products(
     measurements=["F", "B_NEC"],
     models=["CHAOS-Core"],
     auxiliaries=["QDLat", "QDLon"],
     sampling_step="PT10S"
 )
 # Fetch data from a given time interval
 # - Specify times as ISO-8601 strings or Python datetime
 data = request.get_between(
     start_time="2014-01-01T00:00",
     end_time="2014-01-01T01:00"
 )
 # Load the data as an xarray.Dataset
 ds = data.as_xarray()

How to acknowledge VirES
------------------------

You can reference *viresclient* directly using the DOI of our zenodo_ record. VirES uses data from a number of different sources so please also acknowledge these appropriately.
