icepyx is both a software library and a community composed of ICESat-2 (NASA satellite) data users, developers, maintainers, and the scientific community.We are working together to develop a shared library of resources -including existing resources, new code, tutorials, and use-cases/examples -that simplify the process of querying, obtaining, analyzing, and manipulating ICESat-2 datasets to enable scientific discovery.
