# GLOW2D

This package builds off of the GLobal airglOW model. The GLOW model is evaluated on an altitude grid at a location. For non-zenith observation geometries, the model requires evaluation at multiple points along the line of sight. The `glow2d` library wraps the `glowpython.generic()` function to generate the output on a 2D grid in a geocentric (GEO) coordinate system and in a local (ZA, R) coordinate system.

## Installation
Directly using `pip`:
```sh
$ pip install glow2d
```

Indirectly by `git clone`:
```sh
$ git clone https://github.com/sunipkm/glow2d && cd glow2d
$ pip install .
```

## Dependencies
The following non-trivial dependencies are present:
- [glowpython](https://github.com/sunipkm/glowpython)
- [geomagdata](https://pypi.org/projects/geomagdata)
- [geopy](https://pypi.org/project/geopy/)
- [haversine](https://pypi.org/project/haversine/)
- [xarray](https://pypi.org/project/xarray/)

This code uses [glowpython](https://pypi.org/project/glowpython/) package to run the GLOW model.
[geomagdata](https://pypi.org/project/geomagdata/) is used to get the $F_{10.7}$ and $A_p$ indices from the [new data source](https://www.gfz-potsdam.de/en/kp-index/).

## Usage
For example:

```py
from datetime import datetime
from glow2d import glow2d_polar as grc

time = datetime(2022, 2, 15, 20, 0, 0).astimezone('UTC') # 20:00 hours local in UTC
lat, lon = 42.64981361744372, -71.31681056737486 # location of observation
bearing = 40 # 40 deg northeast, refer to geopy.GreatCircleDistance().destination() for more info.

iono_loc, iono_geo = grc.polar_model(time, lat, lon, bearing, full_output=True) # generate output in local and GEO coordinates
```
