This repository contains data files used by GeoCAT-examples and other GeoCAT components to test or demonstrate GeoCAT functionality. The repo has several directories for data files in different formats (e.g. netCDF) and provides a convenience function to access those files with ease:
geocat.datafiles.get(fname)
where fname should be given as a string of the format "folder_name/file_name", e.g. "netcdf_files/any_file.nc".
This function fetches the file by reading from local storage, if any, or downloading from the GeoCAT-datafiles repository with the help of Pooch.
