Climate Services Application Packages
Here is a list of active software packages, applications and utilities to be used to spin off technical climate services information systems. They are complient to approved international standards to ensure technical interoperabillity.
Birds are services providing processes for specific thematic subjects. For example to access climate data or to run a cyclone tracking tool. The services are using pygeoapi from the GeoPython project. Birdhouse provides tools (cockiecutter-template, birdy client, docker, ...) to make it easier to build, use and deploy new thematic birds.
The sources of the software packages are centralised in the GitHub Organisation Bird-House. Some applications are stored in different places due to the deveopment history, funding mechanism or intellectual property rights.
