Detailed Description

Encapsulate the logic needed to handle geographical constraints when they are applied to DAP Grid (and some Array) variables.

This class will apply a longitude/latitude bounding box to a Grid that is a 'geo-referenced' Grid. That is, it follows the COARDS/CF conventions. This may be relaxed...

If the longitude range of the constraint crosses the boundary of the data array so that the constraint creates two separate rectangles, this class will arrange to return the result as a single Grid. It will do this by rearranging the data before control is passed onto the constraint evaluator and serialization logic. Here's a diagram of how it works:

Suppose a constraint for the longitude BB starts at the left edge of L and goes to the right edge of R:

   0.0       180.0       360.0 (longitude, in degrees)
    +----------------------+
    |xxxxxyyyyyyyyyyyyzzzzz|
    -----+            +-----
    |    |            |    |
    | R  |            | L  |
    |    |            |    |
    -----+            +-----
    |                      |
    +----------------------+

For example, suppose the client provides a bounding box that starts at 200 degrees and ends at 80. This class will first copy the Left part to new storage and then copy the right part, thus 'stitching together' the two halves of the constraint. The result looks like:

 80.0  360.0/0.0  180.0  ~200.0 (longitude, in degrees)
    +----------------------+
    |zzzzzxxxxxxyyyyyyyyyyy|
    -----++-----           |
    |    ||    |           |
    | L  || R  |           |
    |    ||    |           |
    -----++-----           |
    |                      |
    +----------------------+

The changes are made in the Grid variable itself, so once this is done the Grid should not be re-read by the CE or serialization code.

Member Enumeration Documentation

◆ LatitudeSense

Most of the time, latitude starts at the top of an array with positive values and ends up at the bottom with negative ones. But sometimes... the world is upside down.

Definition at line 112 of file GeoConstraint.h.

◆ Notation

The longitude extents of the constraint bounding box can be expressed two ways: using a 0/359 notation and using a -180/179 notation. I call the 0/359 notation 'pos' and the -180/179 notation 'neg_pos'.

Member Function Documentation

◆ apply_constraint_to_data()

virtual void functions::GeoConstraint::apply_constraint_to_data ( )
pure virtual

Once the bounding box is set use this method to apply the constraint.

Implemented in functions::GridGeoConstraint.

◆ build_lat_lon_maps()

virtual bool functions::GeoConstraint::build_lat_lon_maps ( )
protectedpure virtual

A protected method that searches for latitude and longitude map vectors and sets six key internal fields. This method returns false if either map cannot be found.

The d_lon, d_lon_length and d_lon_dim (and matching lat) fields must be set by this method.

Returns
True if the maps are found, otherwise False

◆ categorize_latitude()

GeoConstraint::LatitudeSense functions::GeoConstraint::categorize_latitude ( ) const
protectedvirtual

Take a look at the latitude vector values and record whether the world is normal or upside down.

Returns
normal or inverted.

Definition at line 332 of file GeoConstraint.cc.

◆ categorize_notation()

GeoConstraint::Notation functions::GeoConstraint::categorize_notation ( const double  left,
const double  right 
) const
protected

A private method that determines if the longitude part of the bounding box uses 0/359 or -180/179 notation. This class only supports latitude constraints which use 90/-90 notation, so there's no need to figure out what sort of notation they use.

Note
This function assumes that if one of the two values is negative, then the notation is or the -180/179 form, otherwise not. If the user asks for 30 degrees to 50 degrees (or 50 to 30, for that matter), there's no real way to tell which notation they are using.
Parameters
leftThe left side of the bounding box, in degrees
rightThe right side of the bounding box
Returns
The notation (pos or neg_pos)

◆ find_latitude_indeces()

void functions::GeoConstraint::find_latitude_indeces ( double  top,
double  bottom,
LatitudeSense  sense,
int &  latitude_index_top,
int &  latitude_index_bottom 
) const
protected

Scan from the top to the bottom, and the bottom to the top, looking for the top and bottom bounding box edges, respectively.

Parameters
topThe top edge of the bounding box
bottomThe bottom edge
senseDoes the array/grid store data with larger latitudes at the starting indices or are the latitude 'upside down?'
latitude_index_topValue-result parameter that holds the index in the grid's latitude map of the top bounding box edge. Uses a closed interval for the test.
latitude_index_bottomValue-result parameter for the bottom edge index.

Definition at line 281 of file GeoConstraint.cc.

◆ find_longitude_indeces()

void functions::GeoConstraint::find_longitude_indeces ( double  left,
double  right,
int &  longitude_index_left,
int &  longitude_index_right 
) const
protected

Scan from the left to the right, and the right to the left, looking for the left and right bounding box edges, respectively.

Parameters
leftThe left edge of the bounding box
rightThe right edge
longitude_index_leftValue-result parameter that holds the index in the grid's longitude map of the left bounding box edge. Uses a closed interval for the test.
longitude_index_rightValue-result parameter for the right edge index.

Definition at line 203 of file GeoConstraint.cc.

◆ lat_lon_dimensions_ok()

virtual bool functions::GeoConstraint::lat_lon_dimensions_ok ( )
protectedpure virtual

Are the latitude and longitude dimensions ordered so that this class can properly constrain the data? This method throws Error if lat and lon are not to two 'fastest-varying' (or 'rightmost) dimensions. It sets the internal property longitude_rightmost if that's true.

Note
Called by the constructor once build_lat_lon_maps() has returned.
Returns
True if the lat/lon maps are the two rightmost maps, false otherwise

◆ reorder_data_longitude_axis()

void functions::GeoConstraint::reorder_data_longitude_axis ( libdap::Array a,
libdap::Array::Dim_iter  lon_dim 
)
protectedvirtual

Reorder the data values relative to the longitude axis so that the reordered longitude map (see GeoConstraint::reorder_longitude_map()) and the data values match.

Note
This should be called with the Array that contains the d_lon_dim Array::Dim_iter.
This method must set the d_array_data and d_array_data_size fields. If those are set, apply_constraint_to_data() will use those values.
First set all the other constraints, including the latitude and then make this call. Other constraints, besides latitude, will be simple range constraints. Latitude might require that values be flipped, but that can be done after the longitude reordering takes place.
Todo:
Fix this code so that it works with latitude as the rightmost map

Definition at line 474 of file GeoConstraint.cc.

◆ reorder_longitude_map()

void functions::GeoConstraint::reorder_longitude_map ( int  longitude_index_left)
protectedvirtual

Reorder the elements in the longitude map so that the longitude constraint no longer crosses the edge of the map's storage. The d_lon field is modified.

Note
The d_lon vector always has double values regardless of the type of d_longitude.
Parameters
longitude_index_leftThe left edge of the bounding box.

Definition at line 435 of file GeoConstraint.cc.

◆ set_bounding_box()

void functions::GeoConstraint::set_bounding_box ( double  top,
double  left,
double  bottom,
double  right 
)

Set the bounding box for this constraint. After calling this method the object has values for the indexes for the latitude and longitude extent as well as the sense of the latitude (south pole at the top or bottom of the Array or Grid). These are used by the apply_constraint_to_data() method to actually constrain the data.

Parameters
leftThe left side of the bounding box.
rightThe right side
topThe top
bottomThe bottom

Definition at line 594 of file GeoConstraint.cc.

◆ transform_longitude_to_neg_pos_notation()

void functions::GeoConstraint::transform_longitude_to_neg_pos_notation ( )
protectedvirtual

Given that the Grid has a longitude map that uses the 'pos' notation, transform it to the 'neg_pos' notation. This method modifies the d_lon array.

Note
: About the two notations: 0 180 360 |------------------------—|----------------------—| 0 180,-180 0

Definition at line 164 of file GeoConstraint.cc.

◆ transform_longitude_to_pos_notation()

void functions::GeoConstraint::transform_longitude_to_pos_notation ( )
protectedvirtual

Given that the Grid has a longitude map that uses the 'neg_pos' notation, transform it to the 'pos' notation. This method modifies the d_lon array.

Note
: About the two notations: 0 180 360 |------------------------—|----------------------—| 0 180,-180 0

Definition at line 145 of file GeoConstraint.cc.

◆ transpose_vector()

void functions::GeoConstraint::transpose_vector ( double *  src,
const int  length 
)
protectedvirtual

Given a vector of doubles, transpose the elements. Use this to flip the latitude vector for a Grid that stores the southern latitudes at the top instead of the bottom.

Parameters
srcA pointer to the vector
lengthThe number of elements in the vector
