Datasets#
CrocoDash uses several datasets to setup the model. Data can be gathered directly from public datasources (including the CESM inputdata svn repository) or through helper functions in the CrocoDash data_access module. Users can check if datasets are accessible at this link.
Please see below for available datasets.

Public (Raw) Data Access#
Users can directly download data from the following public sources.
CESM Input Data Global Grid & Bathymetry#
If users would prefer to subset a global grid, they can find one set of bathymetry and grid at the svn repo under the sub heading ‘tx1_12v1’
GEBCO Dataset#
Users can find GEBCO data available publicly at https://www.gebco.net/data_and_products/gridded_bathymetry_data/, through the GEBCO dashboard https://download.gebco.net/, or can access GEBCO through the CrocoDash data access module (To be developed).
GLORYS Dataset#
Users can find GLORYS data available publicly at https://data.marine.copernicus.eu/product/GLOBAL_MULTIYEAR_PHY_001_030/description, through the GLORYS dashboard https://data.marine.copernicus.eu/product/GLOBAL_MULTIYEAR_PHY_001_030/download, or can access GLORYS through the CrocoDash data access module.
TPXO Tide Model Dataset#
Users can request TPXO data available for non-commercial use at https://www.tpxo.net/global. The global data only needs to be gathered one time, and is not required to setup a regional case.
