geokube is a Python package for data analysis and visualisation in geoscience that  provides high level abstractions in terms of both Data Model, inspired by Climate Forecast and Unidata Common Data Models, and Application Programming Interface (API), inspired by xarray. Key features of geokube are the capabilities to: (i) perform georeferenced axis-based indexing on data structures and specialised geospatial operations according to different types of geo scientific datasets like structured grids, point observations, profiles etc. (e.g. extracting a bounding box or a multipolygon of variable values defined on a rotated pole grid), (ii) perform operations on the variables that are either instantaneous or defined over intervals, (iii) convert to/from xarray data structures and to read/write CF-compliant netCDF datasets.
