ana5Utils.DFAPathGeneration.getSplitPoint

getSplitPoint(cfg, avaProfile, parabolicFit)[source]

find the split point corresponding to an avalanche profile, with parabolic fit and the slopeSplitPoint

Parameters
  • cfg (configParser) – configuration object with

    • slopeSplitPoint: float, desired slope at split point (in degrees)

    • dsMin: float, threshold distance [m] for looking for the

    • split point (at least dsMin meters below split point angle)

  • avaProfile (dict) – profile to be extended

  • parabolicFit (dict) – a, b, c coeficients of the parabolic fit (y = a*a*x + b*x + c)

Returns

splitPoint – (x, y, z, zPra, s) at split point location.

Return type
