Metview Virtual Machines

To make enable you to easily try Metview and to go through the learning material, we provide a virtual machine with Metview pre-installed (root password = "metv1ew!"). This machine is given 'as is', and is purely intended for training purposes. However, we appreciate any feedback.

Metview is available on conda for both Linux and macOS. From a conda environment, the following command will install Metview without any need to compile from source:

Code Block
conda install -c conda-forge metview

Once installed, Metview can be updated with this command:

Code Block
conda update -c conda-forge metview

There is also a batch-only version of Metview on conda, called metview-batch. This does not include the graphical user interface and is therefore more lightweight and can be used in environments such as Binder. It does include the ability to produce graphical plots, and they must be generated as files (PNG, PDF, SVG, ...) or as inline plots in Jupyter notebooks.

Code Block
conda install -c conda-forge metview-batch

Metview's Python bindings can then be installed like this:

Code Block
conda install -c conda-forge metview-python


Community-built Binary Packages

The following link provides binary installations for many Linux platforms:

From Ubuntu 16.04, Metview is available from the standard repositories and can be installed like this:

Code Block
sudo apt-get install metview
