Return a callable function for computing nowcasts blending into an NWP forecast.

Name

Description

linear_blending

the linear blending of a nowcast method with other data (e.g. NWP data).

salient_blending

the salient blending of a nowcast method with other data (e.g. NWP data) described in [HCLK15]. The blending is based on intensities and forecast times. The blended product preserves pixel intensities with time if they are strong enough based on their ranked salience.

steps

the STEPS stochastic nowcasting blending method described in [See03], [BPS06] and [SPN13]. The blending weights approach currently follows [BPS06].
