This project generates synthetic ocean wave data, performs statistical analysis, and creates visualizations. It demonstrates:

• Multi-dimensional data handling with xarray
• Numerical computing with numpy
• Statistical analysis
• Data visualization with matplotlib
• Unit testing with pytest

• Data Generation: Creates 30 days of synthetic wave height and direction data on a 9×9 spatial grid with 3-hour temporal resolution
• Statistical Analysis: Computes mean, median, standard deviation, percentiles, and other statistics
• Visualizations:
  • Time series plot of average wave height
  • Histogram showing wave height distribution
  • Spatial contour map at a specific time
• NetCDF Support: Save and load data in NetCDF format
• Unit Tests: 12 pytest tests covering all functionality
