PDAFomi_set_domainsize

This page documents the routine PDAFomi_set_domainsize of PDAF. The routine was introduced by PDAF version 2.3.1.

The routine allocates and fills thisobs%domainsize. It avoids to directly initialize elements of the data type thisobs in the code, which can be problematic in some programming languages.

For details on thisobs%domainsize see the documentation of OMI observation modules.

The interface is:

  SUBROUTINE PDAFomi_set_domainsize(thisobs, ncoord, domainsize)

    TYPE(obs_f), INTENT(inout) :: thisobs        ! Observation type
    INTEGER, INTENT(in) :: ncoord                ! number of dimensions used for distance calculation
    REAL, INTENT(in) :: domainsize(ncoord)       ! Array of domain sizes

Note:

• When using Fortran, one can also initialize thisobs%domainsize directly
• `thisobs%domainsize' is only relevant if using Cartesian distance calculation with periodicity
