wradlib.georef.satellite.GeorefSatelliteMethods.dist_from_orbit#
- GeorefSatelliteMethods.dist_from_orbit(bw_sr, freq, re)[source]#
Returns range distances of SR bins (in meters) as seen from the orbit
With SR, we refer to precipitation radars based on space-born platforms such as TRMM or GPM.
- Parameters:
obj (
xarray.Dataset
)bw_sr (
float
) – Beam width of SR in degree.freq (
int
) – Frequency index of PR.re (
float
) – earth radius [m]
- Returns:
obj (
xarray.Dataset
) – obj with added PR bin range distances from SR platform in orbit.
