About PySPEDAS

PySPEDAS is the Python implementation of SPEDAS (Space Physics Environment Data Analysis Software). It supports most of the capabilities of SPEDAS, including:

  • The ability to load heliophysics data sets from more than 30 space-based and ground-based missions
  • Interactive access to many more data sets via NASA's CDAWeb service, and the HAPI data locator and download interface
  • Support for the "tplot variable" data structure and tools, and SPEDAS-like plotting in conjunction with PyTplot, the Python implementation of the IDL tplot tools
  • Field and wave analysis tools: wavelet analysis, power spectra, wave polarization analysis
  • Magnetic field modeling: Tyganenko field models via native Python geopack package; magnetopause and neutral sheet models
  • Coordinate transforms, interpolation routines, unit conversions
  • Particle tools: plasma moments, 1-D and 2-D slices from calibrated 3-D particle distributions

PySPEDAS is one of the core packages of the Python Heliophysics Community.
