Generate and serve data supporting the Snow Today Webapp.
Static data is version-controlled in this repository. Daily dynamic data (e.g. Cloud-Optimized GeoTIFFs) are generated by executing code in this repository.
More on data served by Snow Today Webapp Server
NOTE: Because there is a co-dependency between the dynamic data-generation code and the static configuration code, they are intentionally versioned together in this repository.
This repository is not actively supported by NSIDC but we welcome issue submissions and pull requests in order to foster community contribution.

This package requires a webserver to host its data, as well as GDAL for creating Cloud-Optimized GeoTIFFs.
docker compose build
Ensure envvars $ENVIRONMENT and $STORAGE_DIR are set appropriately, e.g.:
export ENVIRONMENT=dev # default: production
export STORAGE_DIR=/tmp/snow-today-data
STORAGE_DIR is expected to contain an incoming subdirectory where daily data will
arrive, and cogs and plots directories, where outputs will be written.
docker compose up -d data-server
./scripts/container_cli.sh --help
./scripts/container_cli.sh make-cogs-daily
./scripts/container_cli.sh make-plot-json-daily
Permissions on a directory are not set correctly. Need ugo+rx. In an NSIDC deployment,
an operator can correct this on the storage back-end.
