rsl_vslice

This function retrieves an RHI-like vertical slice of the volume scan at the given azimuth. The slice is returned as a radar structure containing a single sweep, which contains one ray for each elevation at that azimuth.

Syntax

result

rsl_vslice(radar, azimuth [, FIELD=string] [, VOLUME_INDEX=value])

Arguments

radar	Radar structure.
azimuth	Azimuth at which vertical slice will be taken.

Keywords

FIELD	A string identifying the radar field to select, for example, 'DZ'.
VOLUME_INDEX	The index number of volume (0 to nvols-1) to select. Default is index 0. This is an alternative to specifying FIELD.

Return Value

A radar structure containing a single sweep consisting of the rays that make up the vertical slice at the given azimuth. Ray index 0 is the first elevation of the volume scan.
