Thanks a lot! Sorry for the long wait.
Instead of pushing to your master
branch I will continue on dev
and get this into the main branch soon!
OK so after reading a bit I'm still unclear why anyone would use this projection for regional applications. As implemented now, this code is only working for
pole_lat = 90
pole_lon = 0
The WRF docs say:
The cylindrical equidistant projection is required for global ARW simulations, although in its rotated aspect (i.e., when pole_lat, pole_lon, and stand_lon are changed from their default values) it can also be well-suited for regional domains anywhere on the earth’s surface.
Anyways, I'll add a check on POLE values and error if anything else than the regular pole since I can't test it.
Would you mind sending me the other 3 parent domains as well?
(and, ideally, the WPS config files that were used to generate these domains)
Unfortunately I do not have the WPS config files. I got these domains from a W2W user, for debugging purposes, and so I do not have any additional metadata or insights into the reasons this projection is used.
OK, new release on PyPi: https://pypi.org/project/salem/0.3.8/
wrftools.geogrid_simulator()
. Also this is not tested?A small test file is available here: geo_em.d04_map_proj6.zip
