[ncl-talk] Wind Swath Calculation using NCL

[Sakib Ahmed]

Dear NCL Community,

I'm trying to calculate the maximum wind swath(maximum wind speed at each
grid point for all the time steps) from a model output but after plotting,
it doesn't look correct. It would be helpful if anyone can point me if
there's anything wrong with the code that I'm using.
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
begin

f    = addfile("florence_wind.nc" ,"r" )   ; reading file
ws = f->ws                                          ; reading variable
printVarSummary(ws)

Variable: ws
Type: float
Total Size: 1658634992 bytes
            414658748 values
Number of Dimensions: 3
Dimensions and sizes:   [287] x [1202] x [1202]

swath = dim_max_n(ws,0)   ; swath(nlat,nlon)

printVarSummary(swath)

Variable: swath

Thank you in advance for the help.
