cf_xarray.vertices_to_bounds#
- cf_xarray.vertices_to_bounds(vertices, out_dims=('bounds', 'x', 'y'))[source]#
- Convert vertices to CF-compliant bounds. There are 2 covered cases:
1D coordinates, with vertices of shape (N+1,), converted to bounds of shape (N, 2)
2D coordinates, with vertices of shape (N+1, M+1). converted to bounds of shape (N, M, 4).
- Parameters
- verticesDataArray
The vertices to convert. Must be of shape (N + 1) or (N + 1, M + 1).
- out_dimsSequence[str],
The name of the dimension in the output. The first is the ‘bounds’ dimension and the following are the coordinate dimensions.
- Returns
- DataArray
Either of shape (2, N) or (4, N, M).
