[ncl-talk] unable to extract data and plot it for a smaller domain.

Soory Mr Rick. It is not clear to me. 

4 corners of large  domain are  (-10N,44.5E) , (-10,105.5), (45.5,105.5), (45.5,44.5). 
I want small domain to be 10-20N/70-75E. 
So I have to calculate the X Y (distance in meters)?. 
kindly clarify . 

Geeta.

 Hi,
I *think* the trick here is to compute the i,j indices of the grid that correspond to your smaller domain. Since it's a mercator projection, and the original domain is relatively small (60x60 degs), I would think you could get decent results by using a simple linear scaling to find those values. So if the grid is NxM (LatxLon), and you extract the min/max lat/lons from the attributes into variables minLon, maxLon, etc.,  then something like:

  minI = tointeger( minLonSmallerDomain * (M -0) / (maxLon - minLon) )  ; truncating
  maxI = tointeger( maxLonSmallerDomain * (M -0) / (maxLon - minLon) )...similarly for Y...
and then:
 Plot(0)                           =       gsn_csm_contour_map(wks,TIR1_INVERTED(0,minJ:maxJ,minI:maxI),rescount)
and don't forget to substitute appropriate values into the mpLeft/RightCornerLat/LonF resources.
Does that make sense?
Rick

Hi.

I have satellite data which has a resultion of 4 km (TIR1) and there is projection information provided in the datafile.

integer Projection_Information ( DIM_000 )

        upper_right_lat_lon(degrees) :    ( 45.5, 105.5 )

The lat/lon are not provided.



Plotting the TIR1 (count), radiance and Brightness temperature for the entire domain is happening by using information from the Projection info. This INFO is used from the Line numbers 109-114 of the code.



My questions are 1. I am Not able to plot the data for a smaller domain of my ineterst

                          2. since I am unable to attch the lat/lon arrays to the variables, I am unable to plot the data for a smaller domain and unable to write the data for a smaller domain of my intererst.

the Images are attached.





Request someone to help me.
