create_strided_binning#
- geodesic.tesseract.create_strided_binning(start, end, stride, duration)[source]#
Creates a StridedBinning object given start, end, stride, and duration.
This creates a StridedBinning object that can be used in any step of a Tesseract job that uses temporal binning. Strided binning is the most commonly used way to create uniformly spaced and sized time bins. This utility helps create bins between a start and end with a given stride and duration.
Bins will begin at start, the starts will be spaced in intervals of stride, be duration wide and end before or equal to end.
- Parameters:
start (datetime | datetime64 | str) – the start datetime for the binning
end (datetime | datetime64 | str) – the end datetime for the binning
stride (timedelta | timedelta64 | str) – the time apart each of the left bin edges will be spaced
duration (timedelta | timedelta64 | str) – how long each bin will be
- Returns:
a StridedBinning object.
