Python-AWIPS

The python-awips package provides a data access framework for requesting meteorological and related datasets from an EDEX server. As with any python code, python-awips can be used to interact in command line, or scripting form, with the EDEX. This is an alternative to using CAVE to interact with the data.

Thorough documentation for python-awips can be found here.
