Showcase & Use Cases

A curated set of example scenarios showing how Zyra’s stages fit real workflows. Add links to repos, notebooks, and outputs as they become available.

Zyra Assistant

  • The Zyra Assistant can help brainstorm and outline end‑to‑end workflows based on your goals (e.g., which stages to use, data and format choices, and example commands).

  • It can also draft or submit GitHub Issues to request additional capabilities or improvements in Zyra.

  • Chat with Zyra Assistant

  • Open issues: https://github.com/NOAA-GSL/zyra/issues

Education

  • Classroom weather maps

    • import: HTTP/S3 β†’ sample GRIB2/NetCDF

    • process: convert to NetCDF; extract T2M

    • visualize: heatmap with labeled colorbar; optional animation

    • export: PNG/MP4 to local or S3

    • Example commands:

      • zyra process convert-format sample.grib2 netcdf --stdout > sample.nc

      • zyra visualize heatmap --input sample.nc --var T2M --output t2m.png

  • Science On a Sphere (SOS)

    • import/process: prepare global imagery frames

    • visualize: animate frames; compose MP4

    • export: upload to Vimeo/S3 for distribution

Research

  • Model subset and analysis

    • import: grab a single variable/time slice from a model archive

    • process: subset and convert format for analysis

    • visualize: contour or vector plots; compare cases over time

  • Event case studies

    • import/process: retrieve event windows (e.g., hurricanes)

    • visualize: time series and composite maps

    • narrate (planned): add captions and context

    • verify (planned): compute metrics and quality checks

Operations

  • Daily product generation

    • import: list/filter latest files from S3/FTP

    • process: transform β†’ standardized NetCDF/GeoTIFF

    • visualize: generate PNGs and MP4s

    • export: push to object storage and web endpoints

  • API service integration

    • Use the FastAPI service to trigger CLI runs remotely; stream logs via WebSocket

    • See: Zyra-API-Routers-and-Endpoints.md

Media & Outreach

  • Public visuals and explainer videos

    • visualize: story-friendly colormaps and annotations

    • export: Vimeo upload; share links

    • narrate (planned): generate captions/snippets from metadata
