Travis CI (Python 3.6)	Read the Docs	Code Coverage

Supports Python 2.7 and Python 3 This code will let you identify and track any normal shape in a 2D space. The principal objective of this development is finding and tracking all the eddies in the ocean.

Now the source code supports the extraction of eddies each time step and moving in Z.

1. Make a new directory where you want the repository.
2. Clone the TrackEddy repository from Github. In the command prompt, type: git clone https://github.com/Josue-Martinez-Moreno/trackeddy.git
3. Install the package globally: pip install -e . This make the package an editable install so that it can be updated with future additions to TrackEddy. To instead install the package locally: pip install --user .

1. Move into your TrackEddy directory.
2. Update your GitHub repository. git pull
3. Edit your install of TrackEddy. pip install -e . or pip install --force-reinstall -e . or, for local installation: pip install --ignore-installed --user .
