It lets you list and retrieve metadata for all available marine products and datasets, apply filters to find specific data, and download subsets in formats like NetCDF or Zarr without quotas on volume or bandwidth.\n\nThe package wraps the Marine Data Store API, exposing both a CLI (via click) and a Python API. It depends on a substantial stack including xarray, dask, zarr, and boto3 for data handling and cloud storage, plus pydantic for validation and pystac for catalog metadata. The main constraint is a Python version requirement of 3.10 or higher, and a known incompatibility between older xarray and numpy 2.0+.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you work with Copernicus Marine oceanographic data. Install friction is low, maintenance is active, and there are no known vulnerabilities. The main gotchas are the Python 3.10+ requirement, the xarray/numpy compatibility caveat, and unclear license metadata\u2014verify the EUPL terms apply to your use case before deploying in production."},"id":"copernicusmarine","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/copernicusmarine","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/copernicusmarine.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/copernicusmarine/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-05-11","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"unclear","name":"copernicusmarine","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Command line interface and Python API for accessing Copernicus Marine data and related services."},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":232927,"position":9052,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"2.4.1"}
