<div dir="ltr"><div>Jetal, you are using linint2 regridding. This and most other regridders will naturally compute fractional averages from the surrounding ones and zeros. I can think of several strategies to reduce down to your desired ones and zeros.</div><div><br></div><div>1. This is the simplest and quickest. Trust that the numerical averaging is an accurate representation of the desired outcome. Apply a simple numeric threshold to convert to ones and zeros. Do this right after linint2 and the print statements. The first line is necessary to handle the missing values that you showed, and you might want to adjust this for the desired missing value outcome.</div><div><br></div><div> flh = where ( ismissing (flh), 0, flh )</div><div> flh2 = where ( (flh .ge. 0.5), 1, 0 )</div><div dir="ltr"><br></div>2. Write your own regridding algorithm that decides ones and zeros based on nearby input grid points, and your choice of decision criteria. For example, weighted or unweighted averages or counts, of input grid points within a given radius of each output grid point.<div><br></div><div>This could also be as simple as "copy the nearest input grid point value to the output grid point".<br><div><br></div><div>3. Search NCL docs for a regridding method specifically designed for ones and zeros. I doubt that there is one, but maybe. ESMF could possibly have something like this, for the same reason as yours.</div><div><br></div><div>4. Look at NCO operators and CDO for the same thing.</div><div><div><br></div><div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Tue, Feb 1, 2022 at 5:52 PM JETAL SUTARIYA via ncl-talk <<a href="mailto:ncl-talk@mailman.ucar.edu">ncl-talk@mailman.ucar.edu</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left-width:1px;border-left-style:solid;border-left-color:rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div>Hi NCL Community, <br></div><div><br></div><div>
