Tidal Analysis Program in PYthon (TAPPY) uses the least squares optimization function from scipy to perform a harmonic analysis (calculate amplitude and phases of a set of sine waves) of a hourly time series of water level values.

TAPPY

TAPPY is a tidal analysis package. It breaks down an hourly record of water levels into the component sine waves. It is written in Python and uses the least squares optimization and other functions in SciPy. The focus is to make the most accurate analysis possible. TAPPY only determines the constituents that are calculatable according to the length of the time series.

Source

This repository is an import of the CVS repository found on the official site:

https://sourceforge.net/p/tappy/wiki/Main_Page

http://sourceforge.net/projects/tappy

I (Pierre Cazenave) have made minor changes to the code to allow TAPPY to be used as a module in scripts.

Installation

TAPPY requires the astronomia, filelike and pyparsing packages which are available with pip:

pip install astronomia filelike pyparsing

TAPPY itself can be installed with setup.py:

python setup.py install

or as a non-privileged user (gets installed to ~/.local):

python setup.py install --user

Examples

The official SourceForge wiki covers the general usage of TAPPY. Given the change I made to allow the code to be imported as a module, an example of its use in that manner is useful.

import tappy

if __name__ == '__main__':

    # Load a time series to analyse
    dates = ... # a datetime.datetime list of dates
    elevation = ... # a list of surface elevation values

    # Set up the bits needed for TAPPY. This is mostly lifted from
    # tappy.py in the baker function "analysis" (around line 1721).
    quiet = True
    debug = False
    outputts = False
    outputxml = False

    if rayleigh:
        ray = float(rayleigh)

    x = tappy.tappy(

    x.dates = dates
    x.elevation = elevation[:, p].tolist()
    package = x.astronomic(x.dates)
    (x.zeta, x.nu, x.nup, x.nupp, x.kap_p, x.ii, x.R, x.Q, x.T, x.jd, x.s, x.h, x.N, x.p, x.p1) = package
    (x.speed_dict, x.key_list) = x.which_constituents(len(x.dates),
            package, rayleigh_comp=ray)

    x.constituents() # the analysis

    # Print the M2 amplitude and phase.
    print('M2 phase:     {}'.format(x.phase[x.key_list.index('M2')]))
    print('M2 amplitude: {}'.format(x.r[x.key_list.index('M2')]))
