starepandas.STAREDataFrame.trixel_centers

STAREDataFrame.trixel_centers(vertices=None)

Returns the trixel centers.

If vertices is set, the trixel centers are extracted from the vertices (c.f. trixel_vertices()). If not, they are generated from the stare column.

Parameters

vertices: vertices data structure

If set, the centers are extracted from the vertices data structure.

Returns

trixel_centersnumpy.array

Trixel centers. First dimension are the SIDs, second dimension lon/lat.

Examples

>>> sids = numpy.array([3458764513820540928])
>>> df = starepandas.STAREDataFrame(sids=sids)
>>> df.trixel_centers()
array([[134.9      ,  80.264389]])
