I have a need to interpolate and grid climate data for the northern
hemisphere. I wish to know if anyone has IDL code to perform
interpolation across the surface of a sphere. Can the routines in the
IDL user's library be modified to accomplish this?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
you should be able to grid to an irregular grid by calling GRIDDATA
with the /GRID, XOUT & YOUT keywords:
e.g.
grid = griddata(longitude2, latitude2, data2, /sphere, /degree, $
missing = !values.f_nan, $
/grid, xout = longitude1, yout = latitude1)
Hope this helps,
Chris

Hi,
Thanks for your idea, if a made a grid points 600 x 600 then how to
get the nearest point to data1, because data1 is irregular grid.

Hi,
I have some experience in griddata and interpolation.
I think you can griddata on data2 to make it become a new grid at
600*600 points,and to have a look at the new grid data, which will be
a array of 600 *600, its value is near data1 or not.
just my person idea.
