uxarray.grid.coordinates._populate_lonlat_coord#
- uxarray.grid.coordinates._populate_lonlat_coord(grid)#
Helper function that populates the longitude and latitude and store it into the
node_lon
andnode_lat
. This is called when the input data hasnode_x
,node_y
,node_z
in meters. Since we wantnode_lon
andnode_lat
to always have the “degree” units. For more details, please read the following.Note
In the UXarray, we abide the UGRID convention and make sure the following attributes will always have its corresponding units as stated below:
- node_lon
unit: “degree_east” for longitude
- node_lat
unit: “degrees_north” for latitude
- node_x
unit: “m”
- node_y
unit: “m”
- node_z
unit: “m”
