Hmmm. I can't reproduce this. Can you share a dataset that
demonstrates the problem?

This is indeed a difficult problem. I can't think of one or more
filters that can compute the wall distance. What about computing a
derived quantity such as shear that would be large in the boundary
layer. Maybe you can use that to threshold?
