mangopy

This repository contains code for processing all-sky images generated by the Mid-latitude All-sky-imager Network for Geospace Observations (MANGO), a project funded by the US National Science Foundation (NSF) (Grant # AGS-1452357 and AGS-1933013). MANGO has a network of 7 all-sky (wide-angle) cameras across the continental United States to observe the ionospheric airglow occurring at the heights of 250-300km and 9 proposed cameras observing the airglow at 90-100km. More information at the MANGO website.

The mangopy project is a python package for accessing and visualizing MANGO data. The project has several authors as mentioned in each code header. This code can be applied to image processing of other all-sky data (i.e. systems with wide-angle cameras pointed vertically towards the sky). The code was developed under three NSF funded projects, MANGO (Grant # AGS-1452357 and AGS-1933013) and InGeO (Grant # OAC-1835573).

Installing cartopy

Cartopy <https://scitools.org.uk/cartopy/docs/latest/index.html> is used for visualizing MANGO data and must be installed before mangopy. Please refer to the cartopy installation instructions <https://scitools.org.uk/cartopy/docs/latest/installing.html#installing> and make sure cartopy is successfully installed on your system before attempting to install mangopy.

Installing mangopy

Mangopy can be installed with pip::

pip install mangopy
