__call__(self, *llis) Interpolate the height for one or several locations. |
height(self, lats, lons) Interpolate the height for one or several lat-/longitudes. |

Method Details

### __init__(self, knots, adjust=True, beta=2) (Constructor) |
New HeightIDW interpolator. Parameters: `knots` - The points with known height (`LatLon`s). `adjust` - Adjust the longitudinal delta by the cosine of the mean latitude for adjust=`True`. `beta` - Inverse distance power (`int` 1, 2, or 3). Raises: `HeightError` - Insufficient number of knots or invalid knot, adjust or beta. Overrides: object.__init__

### __call__(self, *llis) (Call operator) |
Interpolate the height for one or several locations. Parameters: `llis` - The location or locations (`LatLon`, ... or `LatLon`s). Returns: A single interpolated height (`float`) or a list or tuple of interpolated heights (`float`s). Raises: `HeightError` - Insufficient number of llis or invalid lli. Overrides: _HeightBase.__call__

### height(self, lats, lons) |
Interpolate the height for one or several lat-/longitudes. Parameters: `lats` - Latitude or latitudes (`degrees` or `degrees`s). `lons` - Longitude or longitudes (`degrees` or `degrees`s). Returns: A single interpolated height (`float`) or a list of interpolated heights (`float`s). Raises: `HeightError` - Insufficient or non-matching number of lats and lons. Overrides: _HeightIDW.height
