Handling of grids other than lat-lon

Open taylor13 opened this issue 6 months ago • 0 comments

A question was raised by @captainjasper here regarding demo codes for polar stereographic projection grids. I'll copy it here to reach an additional audience. Here's what it says:

We are trying to prepare a new data set of surface elevation change of the Greenland Ice Sheet for obs4MIPs using the CMOR package in Python. Given the location of our data, we are using a polar stereographic projection (EPSG: 3413) instead of the recommended lat-lon grid since it would cause a number of issues close to the North Pole.

Are there any groups that have already used CMOR to handle grids other than lat-lon and would be willing to share some insights on how to best adjust the demo script for this case? Or other groups planning to register/process data sets in non-lat-lon grids who would like to team up on the issue?

I think folks in CORDEX use CMOR to write data on different projections, so maybe someone there can help.
