pyPDAF.PDAF.get_local_type

pyPDAF.PDAF.get_local_type(self, /)

The routine returns the information on the localization type of the selected filter.

With this one can distinguish filters using * domain localization (LESTKF, LETKF, LSEIK, LNETF), * covariance localization (LEnKF), or * covariance localization with observation handling like domain localization (ENSRF/EAKF).

Returns:

localtype

    1. no localization; global filter

    1. domain localization (LESTKF, LETKF, LNETF, LSEIK)

    1. covariance localization (LEnKF)

    1. covariance loc. but observation handling like domain localization (ENSRF)

Return type:

int
