Methods

__init__([line, dx, map_dx, surface_h, …])	Instanciate.
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.
to_dataset()	Makes an xarray Dataset out of the flowline.
