wradlib.georef.polar.maximum_intensity_projection

wradlib.georef.polar.maximum_intensity_projection(data, r=None, az=None, angle=None, elev=None, autoext=True)

Computes the maximum intensity projection along an arbitrary cut through the ppi from polar data.

Parameters

  • data (numpy:numpy.ndarray) – Array containing polar data (azimuth, range)

  • r (numpy:numpy.ndarray) – Array containing range data

  • az (array) – Array containing azimuth data

  • angle (float) – angle of slice, Defaults to 0. Should be between 0 and 180. 0. means horizontal slice, 90. means vertical slice

  • elev (float) – elevation angle of scan, Defaults to 0.

  • autoext (True | False) – This routine uses numpy.digitize to bin the data. As this function needs bounds, we create one set of coordinates more than would usually be provided by r and az.

Returns

  • xs (numpy:numpy.ndarray) – meshgrid x array

  • ys (numpy:numpy.ndarray) – meshgrid y array

  • mip (numpy:numpy.ndarray) – Array containing the maximum intensity projection (range, range*2)
