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)
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.
steps and sseps produce stochastic nowcasts, and the other methods are deterministic.
