wradlib.georef.GeorefMethods.bin_altitude#
- GeorefMethods.bin_altitude(**kwargs)#
Calculates the height of a radar bin taking the refractivity of the atmosphere into account.
Based on [Doviak et al., 1993] the bin altitude is calculated as
\[h = \sqrt{r^2 + (k_e r_e)^2 + 2 r k_e r_e \sin\theta} - k_e r_e\]- Parameters:
obj (
