class hummingbird.processes.wps_compliance_checker.CChecker[source]

cchecker IOOS Compliance Checker (v4.2.2)

Runs the IOOS Compliance Checker tool to check datasets against compliance standards. Each compliance standard is executed by a Check Suite, which functions similar to a Python standard Unit Test. A Check Suite runs one or more checks against a dataset, returning a list of Results which are then aggregated into a summary. Development and maintenance for the compliance checker is done by the Integrated Ocean Observing System (IOOS).

Parameters

  • test ({'cf', 'ioos'}) – Select the test you want to run. Default: cf (climate forecast conventions)

  • criteria ({'strict', 'normal', 'lenient'}) – Define the criteria for the checks. Either Strict, Normal or Lenient. Defaults to Normal.

  • dataset (application/x-netcdf, optional) – You may provide a URL or upload a NetCDF file.

  • dataset_opendap (application/x-ogc-dods, optional) – Or provide a remote OpenDAP data URL, for example: http://www.esrl.noaa.gov/psd/thredds/dodsC/Datasets/ncep.reanalysis2.dailyavgs/surface/mslp.2016.nc

  • format ({'text', 'json', 'html'}) – The format of the check reporst. Either text, json or html. Defaults to html.

Returns
