oggm.Centerline

class oggm.Centerline(line, dx=None, surface_h=None, orig_head=None, rgi_id=None)

A Centerline has geometrical and flow rooting properties.

It is instanciated and updated by _join_lines() exclusively

__init__(line, dx=None, surface_h=None, orig_head=None, rgi_id=None)

Instantiate.

Methods

__init__(line[, dx, surface_h, orig_head, …])	Instantiate.
set_apparent_mb(mb[, mu_star])	Set the apparent mb and flux for the flowline.
set_flows_to(other[, check_tail, last_point])	Find the closest point in “other” and sets all the corresponding attributes.
set_line(line)	Update the Shapely LineString coordinate.

Attributes

flows_to_indice	Indices instead of geometry
inflow_indices	Indices instead of geometries
normals	List of (n1, n2) normal vectors at each point.
surface_h	Needed for overriding later
widths	Needed for overriding later
