icepyx is both a software library and a community composed of ICESat-2 data users, developers, and the scientific community. We are working together to develop a shared library of resources - including existing resources, new code, tutorials, and use-cases/examples - that simplify the process of querying, obtaining, analyzing, and manipulating ICESat-2 datasets to enable scientific discovery. To further enhance data discovery, we have developed the QUEST module to facilitate querying of ICESat-2 data and complimentary Argo oceanographic data, with additional dataset support expected in the future.
