Re: [Numpy-discussion] subdivide array

2010-11-30 Thread Whitcomb, Mr. Tim
 I have an array of data for a global grid at 1 degree resolution. It's
 filled with 1s and 0s, and it is just a land sea mask (not only, but
 as an example). I want to be able to regrid the data to higher or
 lower resolutions (i.e. 0.5 or 2 degrees). But if I try to use any
 standard interp functions, such as mpl_toolkits.basemap.interp it
 fails -- I assume due to the data being binary.
 
 I guess there may be a fairly easy routine to do this?? Does someone
 have an example?
 

When I've had to do this, I typically set Basemap's interp to do
nearest-neighbor interpolation (by setting order=0).  It defaults to
order=1, which is bilinear interpolation, which will destroy the binary
nature of your data (as you perhaps noticed).

Just a random idea: have you tried to convert your input data to float? 
Hopefully you could get some values between 0 and 1 for your interpolated 
values, that you'll have to transform back to integers following a scheme of 
your choosing...
