Add Distance Along Cross Section to Interpolate to Slice #3

Closed walterjhudson closed 1 year ago

walterjhudson commented 1 year ago

What should we add?

Add Distance Along Cross Section to Interpolate to Slice
Estimate: 5
Priority: Should have
Story: As a researcher using the application to do plotting and visualization, I want to get the range of the slice along with their exact distances after slicing my data set so that I can visualize my data easily without having to hack onto the dataset .
Acceptance criteria:
Given sliced data from metpy.interpolate.cross_section and metpy.interpolate.interpolate_to_slice
When [“distance”] is called on this data
Then we get the range and distance of the slices
