Example Datasets#
+The examples make use of a small number of sample datasets. These are +available to view and download from a +dedicated directory in the codebase repository. +Alternatively, they may be downloaded together as a pair of zip files
+++(split into two parts to fit within GitHub file
+
size limits, total size ~125 MB) available
+from here (part 1 of 2) and
+here (part 2 of 2) which can be
+unzipped together to the full dataset directory as follows:
# Download the split zip parts: either use 'wget' as below or
+# download both files from the links above
+wget https://github.com/NCAS-CMS/cf-plot/tree/main/docs/source/_downloads/example-datasets.z01
+wget https://github.com/NCAS-CMS/cf-plot/tree/main/docs/source/_downloads/example-datasets.zip
+
+# Recombine into a single zip (zip -s0 merges split parts)
+zip -s0 example-datasets.zip --out all-example-datasets.zip
+
+# Unzip the merged file
+unzip all-example-datasets.zip
