SurfacePoint

class pyarts3.arts.SurfacePoint(*args, **kwargs)

A surface point.

This keeps two things:

1. The local normal vector.

2. A map of the same keys as SurfaceField but towards Numeric data. It is similar to how AtmPoint is towards AtmField.

Methods

readxml(self, file: str) → str

Read variable from file

Parameters:

file (str) – A file that can be read

On Error:

Throws RuntimeError for any failure to read

savexml(self, file: str, type: str = 'ascii', clobber: bool = True) → str

Saves variable to file

Parameters:

• file (str) – The path to which the file is written. Note that several of the options might modify the name or write more files

• type (str) – Type of file to save. See FileType for options.

• clobber (bool) – Overwrite existing files or add new file with modified name?

On Error:

Throws RuntimeError for any failure to save

Static Methods

fromxml(file: str) → pyarts3.arts.SurfacePoint

Parameters:

file (str) – A file that can be read

On Error:
