Nearest

Nearest(handle::Message)

Create a Nearest from a Message.

Nearest(f::Function, handle::Message)

Create a Nearest from a Message and automatically destroy when finished.

Example

Nearest(handle) do near
    find(near, handle, inlat, inlon)
end

find(near::Nearest, handle::Message, inlon::Float64, inlat::Float64; samepoint=true, samegrid=true)

Find the nearest 4 points to the given point sorted by distance.

Setting samepoint and samegrid to true (default) speeds up the calculation but restricts the point and grid, respectively, from changing from call to call. Distance is in kilometers.

Example

Nearest(handle) do near
    lons, lats, values, distances = find(near, handle, inlon, inlat)
end

findmultiple(handle::Message, inlons::Vector{Float64}, inlats::Vector{Float64}; islsm=false)

Find the nearest point to each point given.

Setting islsm to true finds the nearest land point and only works when handle represents a land-sea-mask. Distance is in kilometers.

Example

lons, lats, values, distances = findmultiple(handle, inlons, inlats)

Safely destroy a nearest object.
