mesmer.core.geospatial.geodist_exact#
- mesmer.core.geospatial.geodist_exact(lon, lat, equal_dim_suffixes=('_i', '_j'))#
exact great circle distance based on WSG 84
- Parameters:
lon (xr.DataArray, np.ndarray) – 1D array of longitudes
lat (xr.DataArray, np.ndarray) – 1D array of latitudes
equal_dim_suffixes (tuple of str, default: (“_i”, “_j”)) – Suffixes to add to the the name of
dim
for the geodist array (xr.DataArray cannot have two dimensions with the same name).
- Returns:
geodist (xr.DataArray, np.ndarray) – 2D array of great circle distances.
