This is a page about open source software that can be used for exploring and analysing environmental data. See the Open Environmental Data page for further details.


 * CRAN Task View: Analysis of ecological and environmental data - discussion of (presumably all) open source packages for statistical analysis software R that are particularly well suited or purpose built for environmentric applications
 * Climate Data Analysis Tools, see also BADC's CDAT page - "CDAT makes use of an open-source, object-oriented, easy-to-learn scripting language (Python) to link together separate software subsystems and packages to form an integrated environment for data analysis."
 * CDO - Climate Data Operators - "CDO is a collection of command line Operators to manipulate and analyse Climate model Data. Supported data formats are GRIB, netCDF, SERVICE, EXTRA and IEG."
 * OPeNDAP: Open-source Project for a Network Data Access Protocol - "OPeNDAP is a framework that simplifies all aspects of scientific data networking.OPeNDAP provides software which makes local data accessible to remote locations regardless of local storage format. OPeNDAP also provides tools for transforming existing applications into OPeNDAP clients (i.e., enabling them to remotely access OPeNDAP served data)."
