Help converting different data sets into one data set and correcting for mismatch [message #64494] Fri, 02 January 2009 13:56

Hello,

I have a bit of a dilemma that I was hoping someone could advise me
on. I have two separate data sets, that are set up slightly
differently, but show similar data and need to be displayed together.

The first data set is of the form array1[6,32400], where positions 0-3
represent the top, bottom, left and right values of a box with a range
for top and bottom of -90 to 90 and left to right of 180 to 0. It's in
latitude and longitude for a hemisphere in 1x1 deg cell sizes. i.e.
90,89,180,179...

The second data set is the same range for latitude and longitude but
it is instead a simple ascii grid with each cell position representing
the latitude and longitude position. i.e. column 0, row 0 =
90,89,180,179 from the above example, I think.

I need a way to map the second data set to the first data set so that
I can compare them.The only way I know how to do it right now would be
very time intensive and this time I don't have right now. The other
issue (which I'm checking right now) is that \they may not be exactly
one to one and if that's the case, how might one stretch or shrink the
second cell size in order to make them one to one?

Thanks,

~Matt
