"Ferret is an interactive computer visualization and analysis environment
designed to meet the needs of oceanographers and meteorologists analyzing
large and complex gridded data sets."


 Bonus points if you can see in Google for "software-name

There is an existing rubygem named ferret that is already a fedora package,
but that is a different project, some kind of search engine.
