• access_nri_intake.source contains Builders and supporting tools for creating Intake-ESM datastores from ACCESS model output.

• access_nri_intake.catalog contains tools to build intake-dataframe-catalogs of Intake-ESM datastores, including Translators for translating metadata in source datastores to be compatible with the catalog schema.
