How to interpolate data on curvilinear grid using remapdis into a lonlat grid with search radius 1.25 degrees

Added by Amit Kumar about 7 years ago

Hi all,

I'm trying to convert a curvilinear grid dataset into a lonlat grid dataset with grid size 2.5 degree. The resolution of curvilinear dataset is pixel level i.e. at nadir it is 4km but away it increases. Now for doing this I want to interpolate the curvilinear dataset by using remapdis but I want to change the search radius to 1.25 degrees. please help how to do it.

The output of sinfo of curvilinear file

File format : netCDF4 ZIP
-1 : Institut Source Ttype Levels Num Points Num Dtype : Parameter ID
1 : unknown IMAGER instant 1 1 7898880 1 I16z : -1

cdo sinfo: Processed 2 variables over 1 timestep ( 0.22s )

the grid i want to use:
gridtype = lonlat

gridsize = 525

xname = lon

xlongname = longitude

xunits = degrees_east

yname = lat

ylongname = latitude

yunits = degrees_north

xsize = 25

ysize = 21

xfirst = 40

xinc = 2.5

yfirst = -20

yinc = 2.5

Yes, I think Ralf is looking into it, why the number of points taken in consideration for assigning weight do not change when the search radius is changed from default. The variable values are same for both the files (plainDis and Radius1.25) after interpolation, that should not happen.
