pyorc.CrossSection.get_bbox#

CrossSection.get_bbox(h: float, length: float = 2.0, offset: float = 0.0) → Polygon[source]#

Create a closed single bounding box for the cross section for use in the CameraConfig.

Parameters:

h (float) – water level [m]
length (float, optional) – length of the cross-section lateral expansion (from up to downstream) [m], by default 2.0.
offset (float, optional) – perpendicular offset of the expanded cross section from the original cross section coordinates [m], by default 0.0.

Returns:

polygon representing the bounding box of the camera config.

Return type:

shapely.geometry.Polygon
