pyinterp.geodetic.LineString.closest_point

LineString.closest_point(*args, **kwargs)

Overloaded function.

  1. closest_point(self: pyinterp.core.geodetic.LineString, point: pyinterp.core.geodetic.Point, wgs: Optional[pyinterp.core.geodetic.Spheroid] = None) -> pyinterp.core.geodetic.Point

Computes the closest point on this linestring to the given point.

Parameters:

  • point – The point to test.

  • wgs – The World Geodetic System to use. Defaults to WGS84.

Returns:

The closest point on this linestring to the given point.

  1. closest_point(self: pyinterp.core.geodetic.LineString, lon: numpy.ndarray[numpy.float64[m, 1]], lat: numpy.ndarray[numpy.float64[m, 1]], wgs: Optional[pyinterp.core.geodetic.Spheroid] = None, num_threads: int = 0) -> tuple[numpy.ndarray[numpy.float64[m, 1]], numpy.ndarray[numpy.float64[m, 1]]]

Computes the closest point on this linestring to the given points.

Parameters:

  • lon – The longitude of the points to test.

  • lat – The latitude of the points to test.

  • wgs – The World Geodetic System to use. Defaults to WGS84.

  • num_threads – The number of threads to use. Defaults to 0, which means that the number of threads is automatically determined.

Returns:

A tuple containing the closest point on this linestring to the given points.
