pysteps.nowcasts.interface.get_method(name)

Return a callable function for computing nowcasts.

Description: Return a callable function for computing deterministic or ensemble precipitation nowcasts.

Implemented methods:

Name	Description
anvil	the autoregressive nowcasting using VIL (ANVIL) nowcasting method developed in [PCvLH20]
eulerian	this approach keeps the last observation frozen (Eulerian persistence)
lagrangian or extrapolation	this approach extrapolates the last observation using the motion field (Lagrangian persistence)
linda	the LINDA method developed in [PCN21]
lagrangian_ probability	this approach computes local lagrangian probability forecasts of threshold exceedences
sprog	the S-PROG method described in [See03]
steps	the STEPS stochastic nowcasting method described in [See03], [BPS06] and [SPN13]
sseps	short-space ensemble prediction system (SSEPS). Essentially, this is a localization of STEPS
