MetPy’s IO module contains classes for reading files. These classes are written to take both file names (for local files) or file-like objects; this allows reading files that are already in memory (using io.StringIO) or remote files (using urlopen()).

There are also classes to implement concepts from the Common Data Model (CDM). The purpose of these is to simplify data access by proving an interface similar to that of netcdf4-python.
