This is a package for creation and handling of Discrete Global Grids. We hope extend the interface also to projected grids(images) in the future.
For now the main features are:
- Creation of grids
- Nearest neighbor search pykdtree
- conversion of grid piont indices to lat, lon
- Storage of grids and loading grids from CF-compatible netCDF files
- Calculation of lookup tables between grids
- pykdtree or scipy if you want to use the nearest neighbor search. pykdtree is much faster than the scipy implementation but it is at the moment not available for Windows systems.
