# CROCO_TOOLS - DEVELOPMENT BRANCH (not stable)

CROCO preprocessing tools, CROCO_TOOLS, have been developed under Matlab
software by IRD researchers (former Roms_tools). Note: These tools have been
made to build easily regional configurations using climatological data. To use
interannual data, some facilities are available (ERA5, ERA-Interim, NCEP, CFSR,
QuickScat data for atmospheric forcing, GLORYS, SODA and ECCO for lateral
boundaries). However, to use other data, you will need to adapt the scripts. All
utilities/toolbox requested for matlab crocotools programs are provided within
the UTILITIES directory, or can be downloaded at https://www.croco-ocean.org in
the Download section.
