in3Utils.geoTrans.path2domain

path2domain(xyPath, rasterTransfo)

Creates a domain (irregular raster) along a path, given the path xyPath, a domain width and a raster cellsize

Parameters:

xyPath: dict

line dictionary with coordinates x and y

rasterTransfo: dict

rasterTransfo[‘w’]: float

Domain width

rasterTransfo[‘cellSizeSL’]: float

cellsize expected for the new raster

Returns:

rasterTransfo: dict

rasterTransfo updated with xp, yp Arrays determining a path of width w along a line

rasterTransfo[‘DBXl’]:

x coord of the left boundary

rasterTransfo[‘DBXr’]:

x coord of the right boundary

rasterTransfo[‘DBYl’]:

y coord of the left boundary

rasterTransfo[‘DBYr’]:

y coord of the right boundary
