xugrid.UgridDataArray.from_structured#
- static UgridDataArray.from_structured(da: DataArray, x: str | None = None, y: str | None = None) UgridDataArray[source]#
Create a UgridDataArray from a (structured) xarray DataArray.
The spatial dimensions are flattened into a single UGRID face dimension.
By default, this method looks for the “x” and “y” coordinates and assumes they are one-dimensional. To convert rotated or curvilinear coordinates, provide the names of the x and y coordinates.
- Parameters:
da (xr.DataArray) – Last two dimensions must be
("y", "x").x (str, default: None) – Which coordinate to use as the UGRID x-coordinate.
y (str, default: None) – Which coordinate to use as the UGRID y-coordinate.
- Returns:
unstructured
- Return type:
