iqm.cpc.core.dataset.turn_variable_to_coordinate

iqm.cpc.core.dataset.turn_variable_to_coordinate(dataset, variable_name_to_convert)

Turns variable of xarray dataset into a coordinate. The function is added because the native xarray utilities always return a new dataset, so changes don’t stick inside analysis dataset.

Parameters:

• dataset (Dataset) – the dataset where the change will happen

• variable_name_to_convert (str) – name of variable which needs to be turned into a coordinate

Returns:

None

Return type:

None
