Apologies if this has been asked many times before, but I'm having trouble even coming up with the right terms to search on.
I have an x,y,date stack of satellite images from which I need to know on what date the max and min values occur. I can calculate the index at which the min/max values occur, but how do I join that back to the date? A simple example case: import numpy as np #Date when image was captured, #images are in the stack in this order days=[10, 20, 31, 41, 51, 59, 69, 79, 90, 100] #dummy array representing something like #"stackofimages.argmin(axis=2)" indexmin=np.array([[0, 2, 1], [6, 7, 3], [5, 5, 8]]) #I want to convert indexmin to "daymin" i.e #[[10, 31, 20], # [69, 79, 41], # [59, 59, 90]] #Where the each element of indexmin represent the value #at the corresponding index in the days list/array. #What I am currently doing is below, #which is _rather_ slow on large arrays #as I'm calling np.where len(days) times daymin=np.zeros(indexmin.shape).astype(np.int) for i,d in enumerate(days): daymin[np.where(indexmin==i)]=d Any better suggestions?
