Gridding RHI and PPI sweeps of single radar objects separately into xarray.Dataset objects #1567

Closed isilber closed 6 months ago

Added two methods to the map module: grid_ppi_sweeps - grid single PPI sweeps into a Cartesian grid - considering horizontal distance in weighting and RoI calculations. This method also returns a mapped altitude estimation field based on the sweep mean elevation angles. grid_rhi_sweeps - grid single RHI sweeps into a Cartesian grid - considering Y-Z distances in weighting and RoI calculations (azimuth of each sweep is ignored in gridding but reported as an output xarray.Dataset dim)

I also added tests for these two new methods and a method for generating a testing target RHI radar object.
