alterlab-astropy
From the author
Processes astronomy and astrophysics data with the Astropy Python library — celestial coordinates, physical units, FITS files, cosmological calculations, time systems, tables, and world coordinate systems (WCS). Use when tasks involve coordinate transformations, unit conversions, FITS file manipulation, cosmological distance calculations, time scale conversions, or general astronomical data analysis.

- astropyK-Dense-AI/scientific-agent-skillsCore Python library for astronomy and astrophysics workflows that need Astropy APIs, including units/quantities, coordinates, FITS I/O, tables, time systems, WCS, and cosmology. Use when implementing or debugging astronomical data analysis code with Astropy.Data★ 54.4K
- astropy-astronomyjaechang-hits/SciAgent-SkillsCore Python library for astronomy/astrophysics: units with dimensional analysis, celestial coordinate transforms (ICRS/Galactic/AltAz/FK5), FITS I/O, tables (FITS/HDF5/VOTable/CSV), cosmology (Planck18, distance/age), precise time (UTC/TAI/TT/TDB, Julian, barycentric), WCS pixel-world mapping, model fitting. For general tables use pandas/polars; for radio interferometry use CASA.Data★ 382
- alterlab-geopandasAlterLab-IEU/AlterLab-Academic-SkillsReads, writes, and analyzes geospatial vector data with the GeoPandas Python library (shapefiles, GeoJSON, GeoPackage), with PostGIS support and integration with matplotlib, folium, and cartopy. Use for spatial analysis and geometric operations — buffer analysis, spatial joins and overlays between datasets, dissolving boundaries, clipping, calculating areas and distances, reprojecting coordinate systems, choropleth mapping, or converting between vector file formats. This is for tabular vector data; for raster/satellite/DEM work, spectral indices (NDVI), or spatial ML on earth observation prefer the geomaster skill.

- alterlab-sympyAlterLab-IEU/AlterLab-Academic-SkillsSymbolic mathematics in Python with SymPy — solve equations algebraically, perform calculus (derivatives, integrals, limits), manipulate algebraic expressions, work with symbolic matrices, and generate executable code from formulas. Use when exact symbolic results are needed rather than numerical approximations, or for physics, number-theory, and geometry computations involving variables and parameters. Part of the AlterLab Academic Skills suite.Science★ 78
- alterlab-geomasterAlterLab-IEU/AlterLab-Academic-SkillsCovers geospatial science across remote sensing, GIS, spatial analysis, and machine learning for earth observation — satellite imagery processing (Sentinel, Landsat, MODIS, SAR, hyperspectral), raster and DEM operations, spectral indices (NDVI/EVI/NDWI), spatial statistics, point cloud processing, network analysis, and cloud-native workflows (STAC, COG, Planetary Computer), with examples across Python, R, Julia, JavaScript, C++, Java, Go, and Rust. Use for remote sensing workflows, satellite/raster image classification, terrain/slope/hillshade analysis, spatial ML on earth-observation data, hydrological modeling, marine spatial analysis, or atmospheric science. For pure tabular vector work with no raster/EO aspect (plain GeoPandas sjoin, buffer, overlay, dissolve, choropleths) prefer the geopandas skill; for celestial-sphere astronomy coordinates (ICRS/galactic, FITS, WCS) prefer the astropy skill.
