<p><a name="whatissaxo_for_main" id="whatissaxo_for_main"/>
SAXO is a package (~400 routines, ~60 000 code lines) used to easily and quickly visualize and analyze models outputs or data observations.
It is based on <a href="http://www.ittvis.com/idl/" target="_top"><span class="trademark">IDL</span>™</a> and contains a Graphic User Interface.
Developed in collaboration with <a href="http://www.locean-ipsl.upmc.fr/" target="_top">LOCEAN</a> researchers, it allows to explore four dimension data which may be gridded or irregularly spaced.
It is particularly adapted to the “<span class="quote">Arakawa C grid</span>” discretization used in <a href="http://www.locean-ipsl.upmc.fr/NEMO/" target="_top">NEMO</a>.
In addition to graphical procedures, interpolation modules and other things …, it contains a set of programs dedicated to oceanographic diagnostics.
