Regridding packages - what to use? #32
Description
Which packaging methodology to use for regridding.
Options that include conservative regridding (which are crucial!):
- CDO
- NCO
- xESMF (python wrapper for ESMF)
The disadvantage of the aforementioned packages are that they add significant, non-python dependencies.
e.g. xESMF is not dask compatible!
I found this discussion on pangeo.
https://discourse.pangeo.io/t/conservative-region-aggregation-with-xarray-geopandas-and-sparse/2715
and I found this package (python only) that does this for rectilinear grids: https://github.com/EXCITED-CO2/xarray-regrid/tree/main
Will try this first one for now.
