LROSE is a co-operative project between:
- Dept. of Atmospheric Science at Colorado State University (CSU) and the
- The Earth Observing Lab at the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR).
LROSE is funded by the National Science Foundation.
This GitHub distribution contains the core software for LROSE.
To download this repository from GitHub, run:
git clone https://github.com/NCAR/lrose-core
lrose-core is dependent on the following major packages:
- git
- make, cmake
- python (releases, cmake support)
- gcc, g++ (or clang on OSX)
- libcurl (web-based data access)
- libpng, libtiff (image support)
- zlib, bzip2 (compression)
- expat (XML)
- flex (lexical analyzer)
- fftw3 (Fourier transforms)
- X11, qt5 or qt6
- hdf5, netcdf
As a rule, we have tried to keep the number of external dependencies to a minimum, and to only include packages that are universally available on the main LINUX versions, plus OSX under brew.
Details on installing the packages for the build are found at:
