Add OI-SST v2

New Dataset

This is a proposal for adding the following new dataset to git.geomar.de/data: OI-SST v2

Data Set Details

Please, fill in the details for the proposed data set:

Short Name

      OISSTv2

Short Description

The optimum interpolation (OI) sea surface temperature (SST) analysis is produced weekly on a one-degree grid. The analysis uses in situ and satellite SST's plus SST's simulated by sea-ice cover. Before the analysis is computed, the satellite data is adjusted for biases using the method of Reynolds (1988) and Reynolds and Marsico (1993).

Rendering Checklist

Whoever will be assigned to this issue, they can use the following checklist to go through the process of rendering the data-set step by step.

DSET="Void-data"                           # replace 'Void-data' with short name given above
  • Data Set Details are complete

  • GIT-Project is created under https://git.geomar.de/data/$DSET (create new data/ project)

  • data_repo_renderer is installed (web, git+ssh)

  • control folder created, e.g.

    ```shell
    mkdir -p ~/data_repo/$DSET
    ```
  • meta.yaml edited appropriately (e.g. copy template from snippet $66 (download)

    ```shell
    vi ~/data_repo/$DSET/meta.yaml
    ```
  • data_repo_renderer ran successfully

    ```shell
    ZSTORE=path_with_enough_space
    data_repo_renderer --prefix $ZSTORE/$DSET ~/data_repo/$DSET/meta.yaml
    ```
  • ./init.sh ran successfully

    ```shell
    cd $ZSTORE/$DSET
    ./init.sh
    ```
  • ./update.sh ran successfully

    ```shell
    ./update.sh
    ```
  • The master branch is replaced with v1.x.x

  • The latest v?.x.x is set to default branch

  • The data repository is added to data/tools/inventory
