oggm.tasks.distribute_thickness¶
- oggm.tasks.distribute_thickness(gdir, **kwargs)¶
Compute a thickness map of the glacier using the nearest centerlines.
This is a rather cosmetic task, not relevant for OGGM but for ITMIX. Here we take the nearest neighbors in a certain altitude range.
Parameters: gdir : oggm.GlacierDirectory
Returns: Files writen to the glacier directory:
- gridded_data.nc
A netcdf file containing several gridded data variables such as topography, the glacier masks and more (see the netCDF file metadata).
