opensoar.thermals package¶

Submodules¶

opensoar.thermals.flight_phases module¶

class opensoar.thermals.flight_phases.FlightPhases(classification_method: str, trace: list, trip=None)¶

Bases: object

Container to combine the different flight phases (thermal and cruise) with helper methods for easy access.

all_phases(leg: Union[int, str] = None) → List[opensoar.thermals.flight_phases.Phase]¶

Obtain all phases (cruise and thermal).

Parameters:	leg – obtain only phases within specified leg (using int for leg), or obtain only phases within trip (using leg=’all’)
Returns:

cruises(leg: Union[int, str] = None) → List[opensoar.thermals.flight_phases.Phase]¶

Obtain only cruise phases.

:param leg:can be 0, 1, … or ‘all’. Obtain only cruises within specified leg or all legs. :return:

thermals(leg: Union[int, str] = None) → List[opensoar.thermals.flight_phases.Phase]¶

Obtain only thermal phases.

Parameters:	leg – can be 0, 1, 2 or ‘all’. Obtain only thermals within specified leg or all legs.
Returns:

class opensoar.thermals.flight_phases.Phase(is_cruise, fixes)¶

Bases: tuple

fixes¶: Alias for field number 1

is_cruise¶: Alias for field number 0

opensoar.thermals.pysoar_thermal_detector module¶

class opensoar.thermals.pysoar_thermal_detector.PySoarThermalDetector¶

Bases: object

Detector taken from the PySoar project.
