truewinds

True winds is still in beta and requires updated documentation, examples, and tests. Function output may change in future releases.

True winds provides vectorized versions of the true winds code provided by SAMOS. It is important to note that there may be some floating point differences between this numpy-based code and the orignal legacy functions. These differences occur at digits that are considered insignificant for wind speed and direction (< 1e-10).

Installation
