pyrad.proc.process_grid_point#

pyrad.proc.process_grid_point(procstatus, dscfg, radar_list=None)[source]#

Obtains the grid data at a point location.

Parameters:

procstatus (int) – Processing status: 0 initializing, 1 processing volume, 2 post-processing

dscfg (dictionary of dictionaries) –

data set configuration. Accepted Configuration Keywords:

datatype : string. Dataset keyword
    The data type where we want to extract the point measurement
latlon : boolean. Dataset keyword
    if True position is obtained from latitude, longitude information,
    otherwise position is obtained from grid index (iz, iy, ix).
lon : float. Dataset keyword
    the longitude [deg]. Use when latlon is True.
lat : float. Dataset keyword
    the latitude [deg]. Use when latlon is True.
alt : float. Dataset keyword
    altitude [m MSL]. Use when latlon is True.
iz, iy, ix : int. Dataset keyword
    The grid indices. Use when latlon is False
latlonTol : float. Dataset keyword
    latitude-longitude tolerance to determine which grid point to use
    [deg]
altTol : float. Dataset keyword
    Altitude tolerance to determine which grid point to use [deg]

radar_list (list of Radar objects) – Optional. list of radar objects

Returns:

new_dataset (dict) – dictionary containing the data and metadata at the point of interest
ind_rad (int) – radar index
