Python data loader for Solar Orbiter's (SolO) `Energetic Particle Detector (EPD) <http://espada.uah.es/epd/>`_. At the moment provides level 2 (l2) and low latency (ll) data (`more details on data levels here <http://espada.uah.es/epd/EPD_data_overview.php>`_) obtained through CDF files from ESA's `Solar Orbiter Archive (SOAR) <http://soar.esac.esa.int/soar>`_ for the following sensors:

- Electron Proton Telescope (EPT)
- High Energy Telescope (HET)
- SupraThermal Electrons and Protons (STEP)

As of now, only the standard ``rates`` data products are supported (i.e., no ``burst`` or ``high cadence`` data). Also the Suprathermal Ion Spectrograph (SIS) is not yet included.

**Please always refer to the** `official EPD data description <http://espada.uah.es/epd/EPD_data.php>`_ **before using the data!**

Installation
------------

solo_epd_loader requires python >= 3.6.

It can be installed either from `PyPI <https://pypi.org/project/solo-epd-loader/>`_ using:

.. code:: bash

    pip install solo-epd-loader

or from `Anaconda <https://anaconda.org/conda-forge/solo-epd-loader/>`_ using:

.. code:: bash

    conda install -c conda-forge solo-epd-loader

Usage
-----

The standard usecase is to utilize the ``epd_load`` function, which
returns Pandas dataframe(s) of the EPD measurements and a dictionary
containing information on the energy channels.

.. code:: python

   from solo_epd_loader import epd_load

   df_1, df_2, energies = \
       epd_load(sensor, viewing, level, startdate, enddate, path, autodownload)

Input
~~~~~

-  ``sensor``: ``'ept'``, ``'het'``, or ``'step'`` (string)
-  ``viewing``: ``'sun'``, ``'asun'``, ``''north'``, or ``'south'`` (string); not
   needed for ``sensor = 'step'``
-  ``level``: ``'ll'`` or ``'l2'`` (string)
-  ``startdate``, ``enddate``: Datetime object (e.g., ``dt.date(2021,12,31)`` or ``dt.datetime(2021,4,15)``) or integer of the form yyyymmdd with empty positions filled with zeros, e.g. ``20210415`` (if no ``enddate`` is provided, ``enddate = startdate`` will be used)
-  ``path``: directory in which Solar Orbiter data is/should be
   organized; e.g. ``'/home/userxyz/solo/data/'`` (string). See `Data folder structure`_ for more details.
-  ``autodownload``: if ``True`` will try to download missing data files
   from SOAR (bolean)

Return
~~~~~~

-  For ``sensor`` = ``'ept'`` or ``'het'``:

   1. Pandas dataframe with proton fluxes and errors (for EPT also alpha
      particles) in ‘particles / (s cm^2 sr MeV)’
   2. Pandas dataframe with electron fluxes and errors in ‘particles /
      (s cm^2 sr MeV)’
   3. Dictionary with energy information for all particles:

      -  String with energy channel info
      -  Value of lower energy bin edge in MeV
      -  Value of energy bin width in MeV

-  For ``sensor`` = ``'step'``:

   1. Pandas dataframe with fluxes and errors in ‘particles / (s cm^2 sr
      MeV)’
   2. Dictionary with energy information for all particles:

      -  String with energy channel info
      -  Value of lower energy bin edge in MeV
      -  Value of energy bin width in MeV

Data folder structure
---------------------

The ``path`` variable provided to the module should be the base
directory where the corresponding cdf data files should be placed in
subdirectories. First subfolder defines the data product ``level``
(``l2`` or ``low_latency`` at the moment), the next one the
``instrument`` (so far only ``epd``), and finally the ``sensor``
(``ept``, ``het`` or ``step``).

For example, the folder structure could look like this:
``/home/userxyz/solo/data/l2/epd/het``. In this case, you should call
the loader with ``path='/home/userxyz/solo/data'``; i.e., the base
directory for the data.

You can use the (automatic) download function described in the following
section to let the subfolders be created initially automatically. NB: It might
be that you need to run the code with *sudo* or *admin* privileges in order to
be able to create new folders on your system.

Data download within Python
---------------------------

While using ``epd_load()`` to obtain the data, one can choose to automatically
download missing data files from `SOAR <http://soar.esac.esa.int/soar>`_
directly from within python. They are saved in the folder provided by the
``path`` argument (see above). For that, just add ``autodownload=True`` to the
function call:

.. code:: python

   from solo_epd_loader import epd_load

   df_protons, df_electrons, energies = \
       epd_load(sensor='het', viewing='sun', level='l2', 
                startdate=20200820, enddate=20200821, \
                path='/home/userxyz/solo/data/', autodownload=True)

   # plot protons and alphas
   ax = df_protons.plot(logy=True, subplots=True, figsize=(20,60))
   plt.show()

   # plot electrons
   ax = df_electrons.plot(logy=True, subplots=True, figsize=(20,60))
   plt.show()

Note: The code will always download the *latest version* of the file
available at SOAR. So in case a file ``V01.cdf`` is already locally
present, ``V02.cdf`` will be downloaded nonetheless.

Example 1 - low latency data
----------------------------

Example code that loads low latency (ll) electron and proton (+alphas)
fluxes (and errors) for EPT NORTH telescope from Apr 15 2021 to Apr 16
2021 into two Pandas dataframes (one for protons & alphas, one for
electrons). In general available are ‘sun’, ‘asun’, ‘north’, and ‘south’
viewing directions for ‘ept’ and ‘het’ telescopes of SolO/EPD.

.. code:: python

   from solo_epd_loader import *

   df_protons, df_electrons, energies = \
       epd_load(sensor='ept', viewing='north', level='ll', 
                startdate=20210415, enddate=20210416, \
                path='/home/userxyz/solo/data/')

   # plot protons and alphas
   ax = df_protons.plot(logy=True, subplots=True, figsize=(20,60))
   plt.show()

   # plot electrons
   ax = df_electrons.plot(logy=True, subplots=True, figsize=(20,60))
   plt.show()

Example 2 - level 2 data
------------------------

Example code that loads level 2 (l2) electron and proton (+alphas)
fluxes (and errors) for HET SUN telescope from Aug 20 2020 to Aug 20
2020 into two Pandas dataframes (one for protons & alphas, one for
electrons).

.. code:: python

   from solo_epd_loader import epd_load

   df_protons, df_electrons, energies = \
       epd_load(sensor='het', viewing='sun', level='l2', 
                startdate=20200820, enddate=20200821, \
                path='/home/userxyz/solo/data/')

   # plot protons and alphas
   ax = df_protons.plot(logy=True, subplots=True, figsize=(20,60))
   plt.show()

   # plot electrons
   ax = df_electrons.plot(logy=True, subplots=True, figsize=(20,60))
   plt.show()

         .resample(resample).mean().plot(ax = axs[1], logy=True,

   axs[0].set_ylim([0.3, 4e6])
   axs[1].set_ylim([0.01, 5e8])

   axs[0].set_ylabel("Electron flux\n"+r"(cm$^2$ sr s MeV)$^{-1}$")

   plt.subplots_adjust(hspace=0)
   fig.savefig("gh2021_fig_2.png", bbox_inches = "tight")
   plt.close('all')

**NB: This is just an approximate reproduction with different energy
channels, different time resolution, and different viewing direction!
Note also that the STEP data can not be used straightforwardly.**
