----------------------------------
icepyx aims to provide intuitive, object-based methods for finding, obtaining, visualizing, and analyzing ICESat-2 data as part of an open,
reproducible workflow that leverages existing tools wherever possible (see :ref:`Complementary GitHub Repositories <complementary_GH_repos_label>`)
and can be run locally, using high performance computing, or in the cloud using Pangeo.
and can be run locally, using high performance computing, or in the cloud.
A few other options available for querying, visualizing, and downloading ICESat-2 data files are:

- `earthaccess Python library <https://earthaccess.readthedocs.io>`_

- A powerful tool for querying and downloading NASA datasets.
- Seamlessly handles authentication and cloud tokening
- Under active development to expand functionality,
including adding icepyx as a plugin to enable subsetting services for ICESat-2 data.

- `NSIDC (DAAC) Data Access <https://nsidc.org/data/icesat-2>`_

- Select “ICESat-2 Data Sets” from the left hand menu. Choose your dataset (ATL##). Then, use the spatial and temporal filters to narrow your list of granules available for download.

Resources Developed For and During Hackweeks
--------------------------------------------
Previous hackweeks gave participants the opportunity to develop codes to help download and/or analyze ICESat-2 data. Many of these projects are inactive, but they may provide useful workflows for users to work with.
