I want to interpolate isotope data of precipitation and display it on a map. The data are available as a CSV file.

With the package Pykrige I could make first interpolations, but I want my data to be interpolated and displayed similar to the R package:

https://bookdown.org/content/782/introduction.html.

Is there a similar package for Python, which is often used in geostatisics to represent chemicals in precipitation? I ask this because I have not found anything myself.

  • $\begingroup$ Hi Weiss, I believe a similar question you posted earlier was closed for being opinion-based. Could you please edit the question and remove the opinionated pieces ("good solution" and "do you think")? The question if a suitable package exists is probably a good question. $\endgroup$

Ok I think there is no similar package. Therefore, the best approach is to do the interpolation with the package Pykrige and for displaying the data I would recommend the package Basemap (unfortunately, I have not used catropy, but I can say that Basemap is well usable even by non-Python affine users). Good Luck

    $\begingroup$ Basemap is now deprecated in favour of cartopy. just trying to install it will shorten your life $\endgroup$
