For detailed installation instructions, system requirements, and troubleshooting, please see the Getting Started Guide.

Quick Start

Here's a simple example of how to use AeroViz:

from datetime import datetime
from pathlib import Path
from AeroViz import RawDataReader, improve, plot

# Read data from a supported instrument
df_ae33 = RawDataReader(
    instrument='AE33',
    path=Path('/path/to/folder'),
    start=datetime(2024, 1, 1),
    end=datetime(2024, 12, 31)
)

# Post-process with top-level functions (e.g. IMPROVE extinction from
# reconstructed PM mass and RH); see the Guide for the full pipeline.
# result = improve(df_mass, df_RH, method='revised')

# Create visualization (y = column name or list of columns)
plot.timeseries(df_ae33, y='eBC')

For detailed tutorials and examples, see the Getting Started Guide.
