Pull Request Testing

  • Describe testing already performed for these changes:

The problem was caused the input NetCDF has latitude from north to south. The "units" attribute at the latitude variable is not correct. The problem still happens if the "units" attribute is corrected. The problem was computing the offset from x-index and y-index (two-to_one() method).

./point2grid /d1/personal/hsoh/data/Binyu/wrong_latitude_units/VOLCAT_HIMAWARI-8_FLDK_s2020296_050000_v300250_VCB_w167_FLDK_b2020295_204000_g001_pc.nc "latlon 200 200 45 153 0.1 0.1" bezy_2020296_0500_regrided.nc -field 'name="ash_mass_loading"; level="(0,,)";'

Note: The plot by ncview for the input NetCDF (VOLCAT_HIMAWARI-8_FLDK_s2020296_050000_v300250_VCB_w167_FLDK_b2020295_204000_g001_pc.nc) and the output netCDF (bezy_2020296_0500_regrided.nc) are not similar. You have to check the lat/lon by moving the mouse at the ncview

  • The ncview of input NetCDF: the latitude is north to south (latitude decreases with ncview from bottom left)

    • Clicking "Inv P" botton will flip vertically (latitude increases with ncview from bottom left)
    • It's rotated about 45 degrees
      • how to know: check latitude/longitude changes by moving the mouse vertically/horizontally).
  • The ncview of output NetCDF by point2grid: the latitude is south to north

  • Recommend testing for the reviewer(s) to perform, including the location of input datasets, and any additional instructions:

  • Do these changes include sufficient documentation updates, ensuring that no errors or warnings exist in the build of the documentation? [Yes]

It was a bug. No additional documentation.
Old MET supports regrid_data_Plane on this input. MET 10.0 beta 4 or later does not allow because the input is not evenly spaced horizontally/vertically.

  • Do these changes include sufficient testing updates? [Yes]

  • Will this PR result in changes to the test suite? [Yes]

    If yes, describe the new output and/or changes to the existing output:

The unit test "point2grid_2D_time" has the latitude north to south. SO the output should be updated by this change.

<MET_UNIT_TEST_OUT>/point2grid/point2grid_2D_time_west_bering_sea.nc will have different content

@hsoh-u I see that this is a bugfix for Project MET-10.1.0-beta2 and Milestone MET-10.1.0. Will there be a corresponding pull request to fix this in MET-10.0.0?

@hsoh-u There was nothing listed for "recommend testing for the reviewer(s) to perform" in this pull request. But, I thought I would try running the point2grid and plot_data_plane commands that you listed under the "testing already performed" using:

  • the executables from met-10.1.0-beta1 (/d1/projects/MET/MET_releases/met-10.1.0-beta1/bin/)
  • the executables from the bugfix_1817_point2grid_latlon_to_laton branch (/d1/projects/MET/MET_pull_requests/met-10.1.0/met-10.1.0_beta2/bugfix_1817/MET-bugfix_1817_point2grid_latlon_to_laton_into_develop/met/bin/)

and then see what the differences were.

When I run the met-10.1.0-beta1 point2grid with the following command:

/d1/projects/MET/MET_releases/met-10.1.0-beta1/bin/point2grid /d1/personal/hsoh/data/Binyu/wrong_latitude_units/VOLCAT_HIMAWARI-8_FLDK_s2020296_050000_v300250_VC

this is the output I get (The difference in the output from the feature branch is enclosed in asterisks):

Is that the expected difference in regridded values?

I am working on kiowa and ncview is not in my path:

kiowa:jpresto:/d1/personal/jpresto/MET/met_help/hsoh_pr_bugfix_1817_develop/current> which ncview
ncview: Command not found.

I looked for it in /usr/local/, but couldn't find it there:

kiowa:jpresto:/d1/personal/jpresto/MET/met_help/hsoh_pr_bugfix_1817_develop/current> find /usr/local -name ncview
kiowa:jpresto:/d1/personal/jpresto/MET/met_help/hsoh_pr_bugfix_1817_develop/current> 

I have attached the two test.ps (converted to png so that I could upload them) files (named test_beta1.png
and test_bugfix_1817.png).

test_beta1
test_bugfix_1817

Can you please confirm that this is the expected change?

Yes, it's the expected output. There are no differences at the log messages.
The problem was that the regrided data exists at the wrong location.

/usr/local/ncview/bin/ncview

  • "find /usr/local -name ncview" does not find it because "/usr/local" is a softlink
  • "find /usr/local/ -name ncview" will find ncview

@hsoh-u Thank you for confirming that this is the expected output and thank you for the tip using "find" in /usr/local!
I verified the code changed and Howard confirmed the new output is expected. All the checks passed. I approved this request.

Correction with log message: the mapping (from cells to to cells) are changed. Some regridded data values are changed, too.
