<div dir="ltr">Hi Manoch, <div><br></div><div>I think what you want is not possible right now but let us get back to you on it as something we might want to look into before we can say it for sure. One workaround would be you load the data (uncheck the sphere coordinate system), apply the filter, and then write the data back as NetCDF. It is not ideal by any means. You can also look into vtkSphericalTransform (if you want to convert data back to spherical coordinate system) but you will not get the exact shape of earth which is a ellipsoid (which I am not sure if you would be interested in anyways). </div><div><br></div><div>Hope this helps. </div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr">On Wed, Jan 17, 2018 at 7:12 PM Manochehr Bahavar <<a href="mailto:manoch@iris.washington.edu" target="_blank">manoch@iris.washington.edu</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div style="word-wrap:break-word;line-break:after-white-space"><font face="Helvetica" size="2">Ken,</font><div><font face="Helvetica" size="2"><br></font></div><div><font face="Helvetica" size="2">Thanks for your reply.
