cartopy.io.srtm.SRTM3Source#

class cartopy.io.srtm.SRTM3Source(downloader=None, max_nx=3, max_ny=3)[source]#

A source of SRTM3 data, which implements Cartopy’s RasterSource interface.

__init__(downloader=None, max_nx=3, max_ny=3)[source]#
Parameters:

  • downloader (cartopy.io.Downloader instance or None) – The downloader to use for the SRTM3 dataset. If None, the downloader will be taken using cartopy.io.Downloader.from_config with (‘SRTM’, ‘SRTM3’) as the target.

  • max_nx – The maximum number of x tiles to be combined when producing a wider composite for this RasterSource.

  • max_ny – The maximum number of y tiles to be combined when producing a taller composite for this RasterSource.

Methods

__init__([downloader, max_nx, max_ny])

param downloader:

The downloader to use for the SRTM3 dataset. If None, the

combined(lon_min, lat_min, nx, ny)

Return an image and its extent for the group of nx by ny tiles starting at the given bottom left location.

fetch_raster(projection, extent, ...)

Fetch SRTM elevation for the given projection and approximate extent.

single_tile(lon, lat)

srtm_fname(lon, lat)

Return the filename for the given lon/lat SRTM tile (downloading if necessary), or None if no such tile exists (i.e.

validate_projection(projection)

Raise an error if this raster source cannot provide images in the specified projection.
