Unidata / netcdf4-python
netcdf4-python: python/numpy interface to the netCDF C library
Unidata/netcdf4-python holds a health index of 75 out of 100, placing it in the Good band. It scores highest on Engineering Quality (81/100) and lowest on AI Readiness (35/100). It was last updated 8 days ago. 3 contributors account for most of its recent work.
75
overall / 100Software health index
Metrics are grouped into weighted categories on one standardized 1–100 scale. Overall starts as their weighted mean; when public evidence triggers the High-Risk Jurisdiction Policy, the rating is adjusted and receives an At risk ceiling of 49. AI Readiness sits outside the overall score.
75
Excellent85-100Exemplary; meets essentially all checked criteria
Good70-84Healthy; minor gaps
Moderate50-69Acceptable with notable gaps; review recommended
At risk30-49Significant weaknesses; adoption warrants caution
Critical1-29Severe problems (abandoned, single-maintainer, no hygiene)
Score profile
Each axis is a category. The shape matters more than the average — a healthy subject fills the whole shape, while a spike-and-crater profile means strength in one dimension is masking risk in another.

Excluded from scoring (no data or not applicable): No advisories left outstanding. Remaining weights renormalized. Matched the pypi:netCDF4@1.7.4 runtime dependency closure — what installing the published package pulls in — 3 packages. Reachability is not analyzed.
AI Readiness
How well is the repo equipped to be developed and maintained with AI coding agents? An independent, experimental badge — weight 0.0, so it is surfaced on its own and does not affect the overall health score.

OpenSSF Scorecard 6.2 / 10

Independent, tool-agnostic security assessment from the open-source OpenSSF Scorecard. Each check rewards a security practice, not a specific vendor's tool. Checks Scorecard could not determine are marked n/a and excluded from the security score (never counted as zero).

All dependencies 4
Full resolved dependency set from the GitHub dependency graph: 4 direct and 0 indirect (transitive) packages. The transitive closure is complete when the repository commits a lockfile.
| Registry | Package | Version | Relation |
|---|---|---|---|
| PyPI | certifi | — | direct |
| PyPI | cftime | — | direct |
| PyPI | numpy | — | direct |
| PyPI | packaging | — | direct |
Dependency advisories 0
Installing pypi:netCDF4@1.7.4 pulls in 3 packages, direct and transitive: 0 carry known advisories, of which 0 are direct dependencies.
No known advisories affect the assessed dependencies.
An advisory means the version recorded in the dependency graph falls inside an advisory’s affected range. Reachability is not analysed, and the graph includes development and test pins — a finding may concern tooling rather than shipped software.

}Scores are signals, not warranties. They reflect publicly visible practices on GitHub — not a code audit, and not a security guarantee.
Missing data is excluded and weights renormalized, never scored as zero. Methodology is versioned and open: metrics v1.13.0, schema v0.16.0 — full methodology · metrics wiki.
