As you have suggested, I did the interpolation for station data

Do you think I have issue with Value_locate for latitude because my latitude ranges from -90 to 90 degree ?



;+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ +++++++
; Original model data at 192 X 96 degree spatial resolution
; Data = Array[lon,lat,pressure, time]
; data=Array[192, 96, 17, 1872]


; Extract one pressure level (e.g 850hPa) and interpolate to 2.5 X 2.5 degree spatial resolution

; Interpolated one pressure level data (WS)

WS=fltarr(144,73,n_elements(time))


; Now Interpolate again to a station data

slon = findgen(144)*2.5
slat = findgen(73)*2.5-90

; Station location example, at longitude 190 and latitude 37

; Find longitude fractional index.

slonval = 190
slonstep = slon[1] - slon[0]
closeIndex = Value_Locate(slon, slonval)
slonFracIndex = closeIndex + ((slonval - slon[closeIndex]) / slonstep)

; Find latitude fractional index.

slatval = 37
slatstep = slat[1] - slat[0]
closeIndex = Value_Locate(slat, slatval)
slatFracIndex = closeIndex + ((slatval - slat[closeIndex]) / slatstep)

interpValue=fltarr(ntime)+1E20

FOR i =0,n_elements(time)-1 do begin

griddedArray=reform(WS(*,*,i))

interpValue(i) = Interpolate(griddedArray, slonFracIndex, slatFracIndex)

ENDFOR

end
