cfdm.core.Coordinate

---

class cfdm.core.Coordinate(properties=None, data=None, bounds=None, geometry=None, interior_ring=None, source=None, copy=True, _use_data=True)

Bases: cfdm.core.abstract.propertiesdatabounds.PropertiesDataBounds

Mixin for CF data model dimension and auxiliary coordinates.

New in version (cfdm): 1.7.0

Initialisation

Parameters

properties: dict, optional

Set descriptive properties. The dictionary keys are property names, with corresponding values.

Properties may also be set after initialisation with the set_properties and set_property methods.

Parameter example:

properties={'standard_name': 'longitude'}

data: data_like, optional

Set the data.

A data_like object is any object that can be converted to a Data object, i.e. numpy array_like objects, Data objects, and cfdm.core instances that contain Data objects.

The data also may be set after initialisation with the set_data method.

bounds: Bounds, optional

Set the bounds array.

The bounds array may also be set after initialisation with the set_bounds method.

geometry: str, optional

Set the geometry type.

The geometry type may also be set after initialisation with the set_geometry method.

Parameter example:

geometry='polygon'

interior_ring: InteriorRing, optional

Set the interior ring variable.

The interior ring variable may also be set after initialisation with the set_interior_ring method.

source: optional

Convert source, which can be any type of object, to a Coordinate instance.

All other parameters, apart from copy, are ignored and their values are instead inferred from source by assuming that it has the Coordinate API. Any parameters that can not be retrieved from source in this way are assumed to have their default value.

Note that if x is also a Coordinate instance then cfdm.core.Coordinate(source=x) is equivalent to x.copy().

copy: bool, optional

If True (the default) then deep copy the input parameters prior to initialisation. By default the parameters are not deep copied.
