RAYD.R Engine
The RAYD.R Engine is an Open Source repository for pysical and virtual meteorological infrastructure. Through collaboration with people, universities and orginizations, we plan on building and maintaining a core global resource designed for the future.
It supports Markdown and React components (MDX), automatically generated sidebar and anchor links, file-system based routing, built-in syntax highlighting, image optimization, custom layouts, i18n, and all the features built into Next.js.
Crowd Sourced Development
The code of the RAYD.R Engine is under the core
branch.
To contribute to this repository you will need to fork the main
repository and make changes to the MDX files under /pages, or to the CSV/JSON data files.
When you are happy with the changes, you can submit a request to merge your branch with the main
repository. The backend will automatically detect the file changes, and re-compile and redeploy the documentation.
Data Visualization
The data files will be pulled down and represented using kepler.gl, a data-agnostic, high-performance web-based application for visual exploration of large-scale geolocation data sets. Built on top of Mapbox GL and deck.gl, kepler.gl can render millions of points representing thousands of data points and perform spatial aggregations on the fly.
