iconarray.core.interpolate.remap_ICON_to_regulargrid#

iconarray.core.interpolate.remap_ICON_to_regulargrid(data_file, in_grid_file, num_dates, region='CH')#

REMAP ICON data to regular grid using Fieldextra.

This calls the _create_remap_nl() function to create a fieldextra namelist with your datafile, and subsequently runs fieldextra with this namelist. The path to fieldextra executable is taken from the environment variable: FIELDEXTRA_PATH. The output file along with a LOG and the namelist are saved in a tmp folder. The function returns the file location of the output file.

See fieldextra documentation for more information on fieldextra. COSMO-ORG/fieldextra
