Incoherent handling of coordinates in basemap addcyclic - python

I have used all mpl_toolkits.basemap functions successfully on several global GCM netcdf datasets. Until I met this grid, with longitudes starting at 0.9375 (instead of 0 as I have always seen) and ending at 359.062.
To prepare a plot, I need to:
make the plot continuous with:
# input_var is a 2D numpy array
var_cyclicDUMMY, lons_cyclicDUMMY = addcyclic(input_var, lons)
I thus obtain a 2D array var_cyclicDUMMYwith an extra column (one extra longitude), and a 1D array lons_cyclicDUMMY with one extra element at the end, i.e. one extra longitude, but at 0.9375, instead of the 360 that is needed.
Indeed in the next step, where I
shift the grid, so longitudes go from -180 to 180 instead of 0 to 360, with:
var_cyclic, lons_cyclic = shiftgrid(180., var_cyclicDUMMY,
lons_cyclicDUMMY, start=False)
I get an ValueError: lon0 outside of range of lonsin
Any suggestions how to get around this with basemap or another solution?

Create a land mask from latitude and longitude arrays

Given latitude and longitude arrays, I'm tryin to genereate a land_mask, an array of the same size that tells whether a coordinate is land or not.
lon=np.random.uniform(0,150,size=[1000,1000])
lat=np.random.uniform(-90,90,size=[1000,1000])
from global_land_mask import globe
land_mask=globe.is_land(lat,lon)
This is a very efficient method to create land mask if all values are defined. But if some values in lat or lon are masked or are nan values, it throws an error.
I've tried to use for loops to avoid that error but it's taking almost 15-20 minutes to run. I've to run it on an array with 3000×3000 elements, some of which are masked.
What would be a better way for generating land mask for arrays with masked/nan values?
so it seems globe.is_land(y,x) doesn't take a masked array. An equitable solution would be to use a coord outside your domain (if possible). So:
lon[lon==327.67] = 170
lat[lat==327.67] = -90
from global_land_mask import globe
land_mask=globe.is_land(lat,lon)
masked = np.where((lat==-90)|(lon==170), False, land_mask)
Alternatively, you could mask the values prior to passing them in:
lat_mask = np.where(lat==326.67, np.nan, lat)
lon_mask = np.where(lon==326.67, np.nan, lon)
master_mask = np.where((lat_mask==np.nan)|(lon_mask==np.nan), False, True)
lat[master_mask]==True
lon[master_mask]==True
from global_land_mask import globe
land_mask=globe.is_land(lat,lon)
The second solution will change (flatten) your lat/lon arrays but does not require you to find an area outside of your domain

Build Shapely point objects from .TIF

I would like to convert an image (.tiff) into Shapely points. There are 45 million pixels, I need a way to accomplish this without a loop (currently taking 15+ hours)
For example, I have a .tiff file which when opened is a 5000x9000 array. The values are pixel values (colors) that range from 1 to 215.
I open tif with rasterio.open(xxxx.tif).
Desired epsg is 32615
I need to preserve the pixel value but also attach geospatial positioning. This is to be able to sjoin over a polygon to see if the points are inside. I can handle the transform after processing, but I cannot figure a way to accomplish this without a loop. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
If you just want a boolean array indicating whether the points are within any of the geometries, I'd dissolve the shapes into a single MultiPolygon then use shapely.vectorized.contains. The shapely.vectorized module is currently not covered in the documentation, but it's really good to know about!
Something along the lines of
# for a gridded dataset with 2-D arrays lats, lons
# and a list of shapely polygons/multipolygons all_shapes
XX = lons.ravel()
YY = lats.ravel()
single_multipolygon = shapely.ops.unary_union(all_shapes)
in_any_shape = shapely.vectorized.contains(single_multipolygon, XX, YY)
If you're looking to identify which shape the points are in, use geopandas.points_from_xy to convert your x, y point coordinates into a GeometryArray, then use geopandas.sjoin to find the index of the shape corresponding to each (x, y) point:
geoarray = geopandas.points_from_xy(XX, YY)
points_gdf = geopandas.GeoDataFrame(geometry=geoarray)
shapes_gdf = geopandas.GeoDataFrame(geometry=all_shapes)
shape_index_by_point = geopandas.sjoin(
shapes_gdf, points_gdf, how='right', predicate='contains',
)
This is still a large operation, but it's vectorized and will be significantly faster than a looped solution. The geopandas route is also a good option if you'd like to convert the projection of your data or use other geopandas functionality.

2D interpolate list of many points [duplicate]

So, I have three numpy arrays which store latitude, longitude, and some property value on a grid -- that is, I have LAT(y,x), LON(y,x), and, say temperature T(y,x), for some limits of x and y. The grid isn't necessarily regular -- in fact, it's tripolar.
I then want to interpolate these property (temperature) values onto a bunch of different lat/lon points (stored as lat1(t), lon1(t), for about 10,000 t...) which do not fall on the actual grid points. I've tried matplotlib.mlab.griddata, but that takes far too long (it's not really designed for what I'm doing, after all). I've also tried scipy.interpolate.interp2d, but I get a MemoryError (my grids are about 400x400).
Is there any sort of slick, preferably fast way of doing this? I can't help but think the answer is something obvious... Thanks!!
Try the combination of inverse-distance weighting and
scipy.spatial.KDTree
described in SO
inverse-distance-weighted-idw-interpolation-with-python.
Kd-trees
work nicely in 2d 3d ..., inverse-distance weighting is smooth and local,
and the k= number of nearest neighbours can be varied to tradeoff speed / accuracy.
There is a nice inverse distance example by Roger Veciana i Rovira along with some code using GDAL to write to geotiff if you're into that.
This is of coarse to a regular grid, but assuming you project the data first to a pixel grid with pyproj or something, all the while being careful what projection is used for your data.

There's a bunch of options here, which one is best will depend on your data...
However I don't know of an out-of-the-box solution for you
You say your input data is from tripolar data. There are three main cases for how this data could be structured.
Sampled from a 3d grid in tripolar space, projected back to 2d LAT, LON data.
Sampled from a 2d grid in tripolar space, projected into 2d LAT LON data.
Unstructured data in tripolar space projected into 2d LAT LON data
The easiest of these is 2. Instead of interpolating in LAT LON space, "just" transform your point back into the source space and interpolate there.
Another option that works for 1 and 2 is to search for the cells that maps from tripolar space to cover your sample point. (You can use a BSP or grid type structure to speed up this search) Pick one of the cells, and interpolate inside it.
Finally there's a heap of unstructured interpolation options .. but they tend to be slow.
A personal favourite of mine is to use a linear interpolation of the nearest N points, finding those N points can again be done with gridding or a BSP. Another good option is to Delauney triangulate the unstructured points and interpolate on the resulting triangular mesh.
Personally if my mesh was case 1, I'd use an unstructured strategy as I'd be worried about having to handle searching through cells with overlapping projections. Choosing the "right" cell would be difficult.
I suggest you taking a look at GRASS (an open source GIS package) interpolation features (http://grass.ibiblio.org/gdp/html_grass62/v.surf.bspline.html). It's not in python but you can reimplement it or interface with C code.
Am I right in thinking your data grids look something like this (red is the old data, blue is the new interpolated data)?
alt text http://www.geekops.co.uk/photos/0000-00-02%20%28Forum%20images%29/DataSeparation.png
This might be a slightly brute-force-ish approach, but what about rendering your existing data as a bitmap (opengl will do simple interpolation of colours for you with the right options configured and you could render the data as triangles which should be fairly fast). You could then sample pixels at the locations of the new points.
Alternatively, you could sort your first set of points spatially and then find the closest old points surrounding your new point and interpolate based on the distances to those points.
There is a FORTRAN library called BIVAR, which is very suitable for this problem. With a few modifications you can make it usable in python using f2py.
From the description:
BIVAR is a FORTRAN90 library which interpolates scattered bivariate data, by Hiroshi Akima.
BIVAR accepts a set of (X,Y) data points scattered in 2D, with associated Z data values, and is able to construct a smooth interpolation function Z(X,Y), which agrees with the given data, and can be evaluated at other points in the plane.

Average a Data Set while maintaining its variables?

I am currently trying to plot some data into cartopy, but I am having some issues.
I have a datasheet that has a shape of (180, 180, 360) time, lat, and lon respectively.
I would like to get an annual mean of this data. I had been using the code
def global_mean_3D(var, weights):
# make sure masking is correct, otherwise we get nans
var = np.ma.masked_invalid(var)
# resulting variable should have dimensions of depth and time (x)
ave = np.zeros([var.shape[0], var.shape[1]])
# loop over time
for t in np.arange(var.shape[0]):
# loop over each depth slice
for d in np.arange(var.shape[1]):
ave[t,d] = np.ma.average(var[t,d,:], weights = weights)
return ave
which I then use to plot
ax=plt.axes(projection=ccrs.Robinson())
ax.coastlines()
ax.contourf(x,y, ann_total_5tg)
But this code gives me a one dimension shape, over time, which I can't plot into cartopy using pcolor mesh.
I am left with the error
TypeError: Input z must be a 2D array.
Would it be possible to get an annual mean whilst maintaining variables within the datasheet?
I suspect that you have to reshape your numpy array to use it with the contour method.
Using your variable name it can be done like this :
ann_total_5tg = ann_total_5tg.reshape((180, 180))

Simulate speakers around a sphere using superposition - speed improvments needed

Note: Drastic speed improvements since posting, see edits at bottom.
I have some working code by it over utilizes loops and I'm pretty sure there should be a faster way of doing it. The size of the output array ends up being pretty large and so when I try to make other arrays the same size of the output, I run out of memory rather quickly.
I am simulating many speakers placed around a sphere all pointing toward the center. I have a simulation of a single speaker and I would like to leverage this single simulation by using the principle of superposition. Basically I want to sum up rotated copies of the single transducer simulation to get my final result.
I have an axisymmetric simulation of acoustic pressure data in cylindrical coordinates ("polar_coord_r", "polar_coord_z"). The pressure field from the simulation is unique at each R and Z value and completely described by a 2D array ("P_real_RZ").
I want to sum together multiple, rotated copies of the this pressure field onto a 3D Cartesian output array. Each copy is rotated to a different location on the sphere. Currently, I am specifying the rotation with an x,y,z point because it allows me to do vector math (spherical coordinates wouldn't allow me to do this as elegantly). The output array is rather large (770 × 770 × 804).
I have some working code to get the output from a single copy of the speaker ("transducer"). It takes about 12 seconds for each slice so it would take over two hours to add each new speaker!! I want to have a dozen or so copies of the speaker so this will take way to long.
The code takes a slice with constant X and computes the R and Z positions at each location in the that slice. "r_distance" is a 2D array containing the radial distance from a line passing between the origin and a point ("point"). Similarlity, "z_distance" is a 2D array containing the distance along that same line.
To get the pressure for the slice, I find the indices of the closest matching "polar_coord_r" and "polar_coord_z" to the computed R distances and Z distances. I use these indices to find what value of pressure (from P_real_RZ) to place at each value in the output.
Some definitions:
xx, yy, and zz are 1D arrays of describing the slices through the output volume
XXX, YYY, and ZZZ are 3D arrays produced by numpy.meshgrid
point is a point which defines the direction that the speaker is rotated. Basically it's just a position vector of the speakers center.
P_real_RZ is a 2D array which specifies the real pressure at each unique R and Z value.
polar_coord_r and polar_coord_z are 1D arrays which define the unique values of R and Z on which P_real_RZ is defined.
current_transducer (only one so far represented in this code) is the pressure values computer for the current point.
output is the result from summing many speakers/transducers together.
Any suggestions to speed up this code is greatly appreciated.
Working loop:
for i, x in enumerate(xx):
# Creates a unit vector from origin to a point
vector = normalize(point)
# Create a slice of the cartesian space with constant X
xyz_slice = np.array([x*np.ones_like(XXX[i,:,:]), YYY[i,:,:], ZZZ[i,:,:]])
# Projects the position vector of each point of the slice onto the unit vector.
projection = np.array(list(map(np.dot, xyz_slice, vector )))
# Normalizes the projection which results in the Z distance along the line passing through the point
#z_distance = np.apply_along_axis(np.linalg.norm, 0, projection) # this is the slow bit
z_distance = np.linalg.norm(projection, axis=0) # I'm an idiot
# Uses vector math to determine the distance from the line
# Each point in the XYZ slice is the sum of vector along the line and the vector away from the line (radial vector).
# By extension the position of the xyz point minus the projection of the point against the unit vector, results in the radial vector
# Norm the radial vector to get the R value for everywhere in the slice
#r_distance = np.apply_along_axis(np.linalg.norm, 0, xyz_slice - projection) # this is the slow bit
r_distance = np.linalg.norm(xyz_slice - projection, axis=0) # I'm an idiot
# Map the pressure data to each point in the slice using the R and Z distance with the RZ pressure slice.
# look for a more efficient way to do this perhaps. currently takes about 12 seconds per slice
r_indices = r_map_v(r_distance) # 1.3 seconds by itself
z_indices = z_map_v(z_distance)
r_indices[r_indices>384] = 384 # find and remove indicies above the max for r_distance
z_indices[r_indices>803] = 803
current_transducer[i,:,:] = P_real_RZ[z_indices, r_indices]
# Sum the mapped pressure data into the output.
output += current_transducer
I have also tried to work with the simulation data in the form of a 3D Cartesian array. That is the pressure data from the simulation for all x, y, and z values the same size as the output.I can rotate this 3D array in one direction (not two rotations needed for speakers arranged on a sphere). This takes up waaaay too much memory and is still painfully slow. I end up getting memory errors with this approach.
Edit: I found a slightly simpler way to do it but it is still slow. I've updated the code above so that there are no longer nested loops.
I ran a line profiler and the slowest lines by far were the two containing np.apply_along_axis(). I'm afraid I might have to rethink how I do this completely.
Final Edit: I initially had a nested loop which I assumed to be the issue. I don't know what made me think I needed to use apply_along_axis with linalg.norm. In any case that was the issue.
I haven't looked for all the ways that you could optimize this code, but this issue jumped out at me: "I ran a line profiler and the slowest lines by far were the two containing np.apply_along_axis()." np.linalg.norm accepts an axis argument. You can replace the line
z_distance = np.apply_along_axis(np.linalg.norm, 0, projection)
with
z_distance = np.linalg.norm(projection, axis=0)
(and likewise for the other use of np.apply_along_axis and np.linalg.norm).
That should improve the performance a bit.
