SharlatanAstro Soft update 2024/12
#healpix is on the latest
#astropy is on the maximum possible version compatible with python 3.10
#julia on the way to package #JuliaAstro collection
Alexander KmochJustus made a great intro on using #DGGS through #xarray #xdggs at the #Pangeo showcase talk. Xdggs is now in a stage where you can use it fairly robustly with #HEALPIX and #H3. Other integrations like for #DGGRID are developed as separate plugins.
xdggs: discrete global grid systems with xarray
While working on the Guix Astro update for this month I've learned that the source may be closer than expected (7 libraries share the same VCS, depending on each other).
Other findings - the famous Cosmic microwave background image was produced by the software I'm about to pack - HEALPix.

nextGEMSEver wondered how #nextGEMS wants to achieve simulating processes spanning a 30-year period on a kilometer scale?
Check out our newest blogbost to find out and to learn about why hierarchies, chunkig and the #HEALpix grid play an important role in efficient regional climate modelling.
Thanks Lukas Kluft and Tobias Kölling for sharing your insights with us!
