regionate.grid_conform.get_region_boundary_grid_indices(lons, lats, grid)[source]

Find boundary coordinates and grid indices that approximate a polygon.

Parameters:
  • lons (list or np.ndarray of longitudes)

  • lats (list or np.ndarray of latitudes)

  • grid (xgcm.Grid instance)

Returns:

  • (i_c, j_c, lons_c, lats_c, lons_uv, lats_uv)

  • i_c (“X”-axis grid indices of corner points)

  • j_c (“Y”-axis grid indices of corner points)

  • lons_c (longitudes of corner points)

  • lats_c (latitudes of corner points)

  • lons_uv (longitudes of (u,v) velocity faces)

  • lats_uv (latitudes of (u,v) velocity faces)
