Timeseries utilities¶
The pyam
package includes several utility functions for working
with timeseries data formatted as pandas.Series
that have
the time dimension as index.
Warning
Not all pyam functions currently support continuous-time formats. Please reach out via our mailing list or GitHub issues if you are not sure whether your use case is supported.
- pyam.cumulative(x, first_year, last_year)[source]¶
Returns the cumulative sum of a timeseries
This function implements linear interpolation between years and ignores nan’s in the range. The function includes the last-year value of the series, and raises a warning if start_year or last_year is outside of the timeseries range and returns nan
- Parameters
- xpandas.Series
a timeseries to be summed over time
- first_yearint
first year of the sum
- last_yearint
last year of the sum (inclusive)
- pyam.fill_series(x, time)[source]¶
Returns the timeseries value at a point in time by linear interpolation
- Parameters
- xpandas.Series
a timeseries to be interpolated
- timeint or pandas.datetime
year or datetime to interpolate
- pyam.cross_threshold(x, threshold=0, direction=['from above', 'from below'], return_type=<class 'int'>)[source]¶
Returns a list of the years in which a timeseries crosses a threshold
- Parameters
- x
pandas.Series
A timeseries indexed over years (as integers)
- thresholdfloat, optional
The threshold that the timeseries is checked against
- directionstr, optional
Whether to return all years where the threshold is crossed or only where threshold is crossed in a specific direction
- return_typetype, optional
Whether to cast the returned values to integer (years)
- x
