Selecting specific range gates corresponding to only the cloud region #1619
-
DescriptionI am trying to construct a Z-ZDR scatterplot at 21 degree elevation angle. Out of the total range gates available at this elevation, I need to select only those range gates, which correspond to the cloud region in order to remove noise or irrelevant data. How can I select only those gates which corespond to the cloud? What I DidHaven't made any code yet. Can only do so after I get some headstart on which direction to proceed along. |

@MohitDahliya I'm going to move this to a discussion. |

You could always try the cloud mask found in: Not too sure if that is entirely what your looking for. For that angle you can extract sweeps for that specific sweep and then use a gatefilter to filter out the range gates you don't want. |

Thank you ! I applied your methodology and got some results. I am not sure how accurate these results are, but I am going to insert them into my manuscript. If face any issues in future, will ask again. |
