Faster interpolation of irregular 2d data
Hi @matt_s , I noticed that the query for interpolated bathymetric data was very slow. The problem was that the Interpolator2D by default was being initialized with method_irreg='cubic'
. Using instead method_irreg='regular'
gives much faster query. I have changed the default, and made a few other minor changes to the interpolation module. With the new default, the CHS interpolation object created in the ocean module should also be much faster.
