<h2>DESCRIPTION</h2>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em"><b>grdrotater</b>
reads a geographical grid and reconstructs it given a total
reconstruction rotation. Optionally, the user may supply a
clipping polygon in multiple-segment format; then, only the
part of the grid inside the polygon is used to determine the
return grid region. The outline of the projected region is
returned on stdout provided the rotated region is not the
entire globe.</p>

bilinear rather than bicubic interpolation [Default].
Alternatively, select the interpolation mode by adding
<b>b</b> for B-spline smoothing, <b>c</b> for bicubic
interpolation, <b>l</b> for bilinear interpolation or
<b>n</b> for nearest-neighbor value. Optionally, append
<i>threshold</i> in the range [0,1]. This parameter controls
how close to nodes with NaN values the interpolation will
go. E.g., a <i>threshold</i> of 0.5 will interpolate about
half way from a non-NaN to a NaN node, whereas 0.1 will go
about 90% of the way, etc. [Default is 1, which means none
of the (4 or 16) nearby nodes may be NaN]. <b>−Q0</b>
will just return the value of the nearest node instead of
interpolating. This is the same as using
<b>−Qn</b>.</p> </td>

left and upper right map coordinates are given instead of
w/e/s/n. The two shorthands <b>−Rg</b> and
<b>−Rd</b> stand for global domain (0/360 and
-180/+180 in longitude respectively, with -90/+90 in

<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">Let say you
have rotated gridA.grd and gridB.grd, restricting each
rotation to nodes inside polygons polyA.d and polyB.d,
respectively, using rotation A = (123W,22S,16,4) and
rotation B = (108W, 16S, -14.5), yielding rotated grids
rot_gridA.grd and rot_gridB.grd. To determine the region of
overlap between the rotated grids, we use grdmath:</p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">grdmath 1
rot_gridA.grd ISNAN SUB 1 rot_gridB.grd ISNAN SUB 2 EQ =
overlap.grd</p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">The grid
overlap.grd now has 1s in the regions of overlap and 0
elsewhere. You can use it as a mask or use grdcontour to
extract a polygon (contour).</p>
<a name="COORDINATES"></a>
<h2>COORDINATES</h2>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">Data
coordinates are assumed to be geodetic and will
automatically be converted to geocentric before spherical
rotations are performed. We convert back to geodetic
coordinates for output. Note: If your data already are
geocentric, you can avoid the conversion by using
--ELLIPSOID=sphere.</p>
