cf.CoordinateBounds

class cf.CoordinateBounds(properties={}, attributes=None, data=None, copy=True)

Bases: cf.variable.Variable

A CF coordinate’s bounds object containing cell boundaries or intervals of climatological time. The parent coordinate’s climatology attribute indicates which type of bounds are present.

Initialization

Parameters:

properties: dict, optional

Initialize a new instance with CF properties from the dictionary’s key/value pairs.

attributes: dict, optional

Provide the new instance with attributes from the dictionary’s key/value pairs.

data: cf.Data, optional

Provide the new instance with an N-dimensional data array.

copy: bool, optional

If False then do not deep copy arguments prior to initialization. By default arguments are deep copied.
