l3py - L3 Products in Python
============================

What is l3py
------------

l3py is a free Open Source software package for computing gridded mass anomalies (Level 3 products)
from time variable gravity field solutions. It is tailored for products of the GRACE
mission and its successor GRACE-FO.

The features of l3py are:

 * File I/O for common data formats including GFC files and COARDS compliant netCDF
 * Basic arithmetic operations for sets of potential coefficients
 * Propagation of spherical harmonic coefficients to gridded mass anomalies
 * Spatial filtering of potential coefficients

Installation
------------

l3py is written for Python>=3.4 and only depends on `numpy` and `netcdf4`. To install
the package, first clone the repository or download the zip archive. In the root directory
of the package (i.e. the directory containing the ``setup.py`` file), running

    pip install .

will install the package and its dependencies.

API Reference
