This is a filter that reads (x, y) or (longitude, latitude) positions from the first 2 columns of ``data`` and uses a combination of 1-7 criteria to pass or reject the records. Records can be selected based on whether or not they: 1. are inside a rectangular region (``region`` [and ``projection``]) 2. are within *dist* km of any point in *pointfile* (``dist2pt``) 3. are within *dist* km of any line in *linefile* (``dist2line``) 4. are inside one of the polygons in *polygonfile* (``polygon``) 5. are inside geographical features (based on coastlines) 6. have z-values within a given range 7. are inside bins of a grid mask whose nodes are non-zero The sense of the tests can be reversed for each of these 7 criteria by using the ``reverse`` parameter. Full option list at :gmt-docs:`gmtselect.html` {aliases} Parameters ---------- data : str, {table-like} Pass in either a file name to an ASCII data table, a 2-D {table-classes}. {output_type} {outfile} {area_thresh} dist2pt : str *pointfile*\|\ *lon*/*lat*\ **+d**\ *dist*. Pass all records whose locations are within *dist* of any of the points in the ASCII file *pointfile*. If *dist* is zero, the 3rd column of *pointfile* must have each point's individual radius of influence. If you only have a single point, you can specify *lon*/*lat* instead of *pointfile*. Distances are Cartesian and in user units. Alternatively, if ``region`` and ``projection`` are used, the geographic coordinates are projected to map coordinates (in centimeters, inches, meters, or points, as determined by :gmt-term:`PROJ_LENGTH_UNIT`) before Cartesian distances are compared to *dist*. dist2line : str *linefile*\ **+d**\ *dist*\ [**+p**]. Pass all records whose locations are within *dist* of any of the line segments in the ASCII :gmt-docs:`multiple-segment file <reference/file-formats.html#optional-segment-header-records>` *linefile*. If *dist* is zero, we will scan each sub-header in *linefile* for an embedded **-D**\ *dist* setting that sets each line's individual distance value. Distances are Cartesian and in user units. Alternatively, if ``region`` and ``projection`` are used, the geographic coordinates are projected to map coordinates (in centimeters, inches, meters, or points, as determined by :gmt-term:`PROJ_LENGTH_UNIT`) before Cartesian distances are compared to *dist*. Append **+p** to ensure only points whose orthogonal projections onto the nearest line-segment fall within the segment's endpoints [Default considers points "beyond" the line's endpoints]. polygon : str *polygonfile*. Pass all records whose locations are within one of the closed polygons in the ASCII :gmt-docs:`multiple-segment file <reference/file-formats.html#optional-segment-header-records>` *polygonfile*. For spherical polygons (lon, lat), make sure no consecutive points are separated by 180 degrees or more in longitude. resolution : str *resolution*\ [**+f**]. Ignored unless ``mask`` is set. Selects the resolution of the coastline data set to use ((**f**)ull, (**h**)igh, (**i**)ntermediate, (**l**)ow, or (**c**)rude). The resolution drops off by ~80% between data sets. [Default is **l**]. Append (**+f**) to automatically select a lower resolution should the one requested not be available [Default is abort if not found]. Note that because the coastlines differ in details it is not guaranteed that a point will remain inside [or outside] when a different resolution is selected. gridmask : str Pass all locations that are inside the valid data area of the grid *gridmask*. Nodes that are outside are either NaN or zero. reverse : str [**cflrsz**]. Reverse the sense of the test for each of the criteria specified: - **c** select records NOT inside any point's circle of influence. - **f** select records NOT inside any of the polygons. - **g** will pass records inside the cells with z equal zero of the grid mask in ``gridmask``. - **l** select records NOT within the specified distance of any line. - **r** select records NOT inside the specified rectangular region. - **s** select records NOT considered inside as specified by ``mask`` (and ``area_thresh``, ``resolution``). - **z** select records NOT within the range specified by ``z_subregion``. {projection} mask : str or list Pass all records whose location is inside specified geographical features. Specify if records should be skipped (s) or kept (k) using 1 of 2 formats: - *wet/dry*. - *ocean/land/lake/island/pond*. [Default is s/k/s/k/s (i.e., s/k), which passes all points on dry land]. {region} {verbose} z_subregion : str or list *min*\ [/*max*]\ [**+a**]\ [**+c**\ *col*]\ [**+i**]. Pass all records whose 3rd column (*z*; *col* = 2) lies within the given range or is NaN (use ``skiprows`` to skip NaN records). If *max* is omitted then we test if *z* equals *min* instead. This means equality within 5 ULPs (unit of least precision; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_in_the_last_place). Input file must have at least three columns. To indicate no limit on *min* or *max*, specify a hyphen (-). If your 3rd column is absolute time then remember to supply ``coltypes="2T"``. To specify another column, append **+c**\ *col*, and to specify several tests pass a list of arguments as you have columns to test. **Note**: When more than one ``z_subregion`` argument is given then the ``reverse="z"`` cannot be used. In the case of multiple tests you may use these modifiers as well: **+a** passes any record that passes at least one of your *z* tests [Default is all tests must pass], and **+i** reverses the tests to pass record with *z* value NOT in the given range. Finally, if **+c** is not used then it is automatically incremented for each new ``z_subregion`` argument, starting with 2. {binary} {nodata} {find} {coltypes} {gap} {header} {incols} {outcols} {skiprows} {wrap} Returns ------- ret Return type depends on ``outfile`` and ``output_type``: - ``None`` if ``outfile`` is set (output will be stored in file set by ``outfile``) - :class:`pandas.DataFrame` or :class:`numpy.ndarray` if ``outfile`` is not set (depends on ``output_type``) Example ------- >>> import pygmt >>> # Load a table of ship observations of bathymetry off Baja California >>> ship_data = pygmt.datasets.load_sample_data(name="bathymetry") >>> # Only return the data points that lie within the region between >>> # longitudes 246 and 247 and latitudes 20 and 21 >>> out = pygmt.select(data=ship_data, region=[246, 247, 20, 21]) """ output_type = validate_output_table_type(output_type, outfile=outfile) column_names = None if output_type == "pandas" and isinstance(data, pd.DataFrame): column_names = data.columns.to_list() with Session() as lib: with ( lib.virtualfile_in(check_kind="vector", data=data) as vintbl, lib.virtualfile_out(kind="dataset", fname=outfile) as vouttbl, ): lib.call_module( module="select", args=build_arg_list(kwargs, infile=vintbl, outfile=vouttbl), ) return lib.virtualfile_to_dataset( vfname=vouttbl, output_type=output_type, column_names=column_names, )
