GeoArraySize

GeoArraySize

is an option for geographic data functions that determines the dimensions of the array generated.

Details

  • GeoArraySize can be used in GeoElevationData.
  • The following settings can be given:
  • Automaticautomatic choice of array dimensions
    {m,n}explicit array dimensions
    {{mmax},{nmax}}maximum dimensions
    {{mmin,mmax},{nmin,nmax}}explicit dimension ranges

Basic Examples  (1)

Specify the dimensions of the output array:

Wolfram Language code: GeoElevationData[GeoRange -> "World", GeoArraySize -> {400, 800}]
Wolfram Language code: ArrayPlot[%]

Scope  (5)

Select automatically the size of the geo array:

Wolfram Language code: GeoElevationData[GeoRange -> "World", GeoArraySize -> Automatic]//Dimensions

The geo array size generally depends on the provided geo zoom level:

Wolfram Language code: Table[zoom -> Dimensions[GeoElevationData[GeoRange -> "World", GeoZoomLevel -> zoom, GeoArraySize -> Automatic]], {zoom, 1, 4}]

A single size value is interpreted as the size at level two:

Wolfram Language code: GeoElevationData[GeoRange -> "World", GeoArraySize -> 400]

The size at level one is inferred from the aspect ratio of the corresponding geo range:

Wolfram Language code: %//Dimensions

Provide specific values for both dimensions of the geo array:

Wolfram Language code: GeoElevationData[GeoRange -> "World", GeoArraySize -> {300, 400}]

If the provided dimensions do not match the aspect ratio of the data, the result is padded with values of magnitude given by the Background option:

Wolfram Language code: ArrayPlot[%]

Provide specific values for both dimensions of the geo array:

Wolfram Language code: GeoElevationData[GeoRange -> "World", GeoArraySize -> {{300}, {400}}]
Wolfram Language code: ArrayPlot[%]

When ranges of sizes are given, the result will use the maximal values compatible with the aspect ratio:

Wolfram Language code: GeoElevationData[GeoRange -> "World", GeoArraySize -> {{150, 300}, {350, 400}}]
Wolfram Language code: ArrayPlot[%]
