pyrad.proc.process_intercomp_with_QC#

pyrad.proc.process_intercomp_with_QC(procstatus, dscfg, radar_list=None)[source]#
Parameters:

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

  • dscfg (dictionary of dictionaries) –

    data set configuration. Accepted Configuration Keywords:

    datatype : list of string. Dataset keyword
    The input data types, must contain
    - one "main" datatype to be intercompared (ANY pyrad-supported datatype),
    - "PhiDP" or "PhiDPc"
    - "time_avg_flag"
    for the two radars
colocgatespath : string.
    base path to the file containing the coordinates of the co-located
    gates
coloc_data_dir : string. Dataset keyword
    name of the directory containing the csv file with colocated data
coloc_radars_name : string. Dataset keyword
    string identifying the radar names
rays_are_indexed : bool. Dataset keyword
    If True it is considered that the rays are indexed and that the
    data can be selected simply looking at the ray number.
    Default false
azi_tol : float. Dataset keyword
    azimuth tolerance between the two radars. Default 0.5 deg
ele_tol : float. Dataset keyword
    elevation tolerance between the two radars. Default 0.5 deg
rng_tol : float. Dataset keyword
    range tolerance between the two radars. Default 50 m
clt_max : float. Dataset keyword
    maximum fraction  of samples that can be clutter contaminated.
    Default 1. i.e. all
phi_excess_max : float. Dataset keyword
    maximum fraction of samples that can have excess instantaneous
    PhiDP. Excess phidp is computed in the FLAG_TIME_AVG dataset, it corresponds to
    an exceedance of a threshold in PhiDP at the native time resolution of the data
    (no averaging). The excess phidp value corresponds to the parameter phidpmax used in the
    FLAG_TIME_AVG dataset used as input. Default 1. i.e. all
non_rain_max : float. Dataset keyword
    maximum fraction of samples that can be no rain. Default 1. i.e. all
phi_avg_max : float. Dataset keyword
    maximum average (hourly) PhiDP in degrees allowed. This conditions differs from
    phi_excess_max, because it concerns only average values and is defined in degrees
    and not in percentage of samples. Default is infinite, i.e. any

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

Returns:

  • new_dataset (dict) – dictionary containing a dictionary with intercomparison data and the key “final” which contains a boolean that is true when all volumes have been processed

  • ind_rad (int) – radar index
