+## Installation Instructions
+
+**How To Install**
+
+Copy and paste either command into your terminal or anaconda prompt:
+
+*Install via Anaconda*
+
+`conda install wxdata`
+
+OR
+
+`mamba install wxdata`
+
+*Install via pip*
+
+`pip install wxdata`
+
+**How To Update To The Latest Version**
+
+Copy and paste either command into your terminal or anaconda prompt:
+
+*Update via Anaconda*
+
+***This is for users who initially installed WxData through Anaconda***
+
+`conda update wxdata`
+
+OR
+
+`mamba update wxdata`
+
+*Update via pip*
+
+***This is for users who initially installed WxData through pip***
+
+`pip install --upgrade wxdata`
+
+***Important Compatibility Information***
+
+When a new version of Python comes out, it might not be compatible with the C++ eccodes library immediately (especially on pip/pypi versions).
+
+This issue arises when the user is post-processing GRIB data.
+
+There are two options to resolve this issue:
+
+i) Install wxdata via Anaconda/Miniconda3 --> `conda install wxdata`
+
+ii) Set up a new environment with an earlier version of Python (must be Python >= 3.10) and then `pip install wxdata`

+
+End-To-End clients with multiple servers to pull data from can find the different options for `source` by the table below
+
+`source='noaa' - NOAA/NCEP/NOMADS OR NOAA/NWS/FTP`
+
+`source='ecmwf' - ECMWF Open-Data Server`
+
+`source='aws' - Amazon Web Services (AWS)`
+
+`source='google' - Google Cloud`

+
+## Proxy Server Configuration
+
+***Friendly for users working on VPN/PROXY connections***
+
+   Depending on which client, the proxy-address:port must be entered as either a dictionary or a string.
+
+   The clients that use a string for proxies are:
+
+   1) All ECMWF clients.
+
+   2) METAR Observations Client.
+      
+   3) `pixel_query()` tool if the user needs to download the airport station codes list.
+
+   All other clients use proxies as a dictionary
+
+Example: We want to download the latest Observed Sounding Data for San Diego, CA (NKX)
+
+```python
+proxies=None ---> proxies={
+                       'http':'http://your-proxy-address:port',
+                       'https':'http://your-proxy-address:port'
+                       }
+```
+```python
+# Here is our program
+from wxdata import get_observed_sounding_data
+
+proxies={
+        'http':'http://your-proxy-address:port',
+        'https':'http://your-proxy-address:port'
+        }
+
+data = sounding_data = get_observed_sounding_data('nkx', proxies=proxies)
+```
+
+Example: We want to download the ECMWF IFS Data:
+
+```python
+proxies=None ---> proxies="http://your-proxy-address:port" ---> ds = ecmwf_ifs(proxies=proxies)
+```
+```python
+# Here is our program
+from wxdata import get_observed_sounding_data
+
+proxies="https://your-proxy-address:port"
+
+data = ecmwf_ifs(proxies=proxies)
+```

+
+## What makes WxData unique among various meteorological Python packages?
+       
+1) Converts GRIB variable keys into variable keys that are in plain language.
+    - (e.g. 'r2' ---> '2m_relative_humidity')
+      
+2) Has a scanner that checks if the data files on your PC are up to date with those on the data server.
+   - This is a safeguard to protect newer developers from getting temporary IP address bans from the various data servers.
+   - Improves performance by preventing the potential of repetative downloading the same dataset.
+
+3) Preserves system memory via the following methods:
+   - Clears out old data files before each new data download.
+   - Optional setting `clear_recycle_bin` in all functions.
+        - When `clear_recycle_bin=True` the computer's recycle/trash bin is cleared with each run of the script using any WxData function.
+        - If a user wishes to not clear out their recycle bin `set clear_recycle_bin=False`.
+        - Default: `clear_recycle_bin=False`.
+    
+4) Has built-in support for users on VPN/PROXY connections.
+
+5) Consists of both observational and model data.
+
+6) Has additional tools to assist querying data, resolving gaps in data and automating your Python workflow.
+
+7) Utilizes byte-range requests to subset and speed up download times.
+
+8) Several end-to-end clients have the ability to pull from multiple servers (NOAA/NCEP/NOMADS, ECMWF Open-Data, Amazon Web Services (AWS), Google Cloud and NOAA/NWS/FTP).
+
+9) Clients can automatically rotate to a new server when experiencing connectivity issues to the initial server.

+## Importing Functions from WxData
+
+```Python
+"""
+This file hosts all of the functions in the WxData Python library that directly interact with the user. 
+
+(C) Eric J. Drewitz 2025-2026
+"""
+
+
+"""
+This section of functions are for users who want full wxdata functionality.
+
+These functions do the following:
+
+1) Scan for the latest available data. 
+    - If the data on your local machine is not up to date, new data will download automatically.
+    - If the data on your local machine is up to date, new data download is bypassed.
+    - This is a safeguard that prevents excessive requests on the data servers.
+    
+2) Builds the wxdata directory to store the weather data files. 
+    - Scans for the directory branch and builds the branch if it does not exist. 
+
+3) Downloads the data.
+    - Users can define their VPN/PROXY IP Address as a (dict) in their script and pass their
+      VPN/PROXY IP address into the function to avoid SSL Certificate errors when requesting data.
+    - Algorithm allows for up to 5 retries with a 30 second break between each retry to resolve connection
+      interruptions while not overburdening the data servers. 
+
+4) Pre-processes the data via filename formatting and correctly filing in the wxdata directory. 
+
+5) Post-processing by doing the following tasks:
+     - Remapping GRIB2 variable keys into plain language variable keys.
+     - Fixing dataset build errors and grouping all variables together.
+     - Transforms longitude from 0 to 360 degrees into -180 to 180 degrees.
+     - Subsetting the data to the latitude/longitude boundaries specified by the user. 
+     - Converting temperature from kelvin to units the user wants (default is Celsius).
+     - Returning a post-processed xarray.array to the user. 
+     
+6) Preserves system memory by doing the following:
+     - Deleting old data files before each new download.
+     - When clear_recycle_bin=True, the user's recycle bin is also cleared.
