NAME

       CSSTRID - calculates a Delaunay triangulation for data on a sphere

SYNOPSIS

       CALL CSSTRID (N, RLAT, RLON, NT, NTRI, IWK, RWK, IER)

DESCRIPTION

       N           (integer,input) The number of input data points (N > 2).

       RLAT        (double  precision,  input) An array containing the latitudes of the input data, expressed in
                   degrees.  The first three points must not be collinear (lie on a common great circle).

       RLON        (double precision, input) An array containing the longitudes of the input data, expressed  in
                   degrees.

       NT          (integer,  output)  The number of triangles in the triangulation, unless IER .NE. 0, in which
                   case NT = 0. Where NB is the number of boundary points on the convex hull of the data, if  NB
                   .GE.  3, then NT = 2N-NB-2, otherwise NT=2N-4. The input data are considered to be bounded if
                   they all lie in one hemisphere.  Dimensioning NT for 2*N will always work.

       NTRI        (integer, output) A two-dimensional integer array dimensioned for 3 x  NT  where  NT  is  the
                   number of triangles in the triangulation (NT is at most 2*N). NTRI contains the triangulation
                   data.  The   vertices   of   the   Kth   triangle   are:   (PLAT(NTRI((1,K)),PLON(NTRI(1,K)),
                   (PLAT(NTRI((2,K)),PLON(NTRI(2,K)), (PLAT(NTRI((3,K)),PLON(NTRI(3,K))

       IWK         (integer, input) An integer workspace of length 27*N.

       RWK         (double  precision, input) A work array dimensioned for 13*N.  Note that this work array must
                   be typed DOUBLE PRECISION.

       IER         (integer, output) An error return value.  If IER is  returned  as  0,  then  no  errors  were
                   detected. If IER is non-zero, then refer to the man page for cssgrid_errors for details.

USAGE

       CSSTRID  is  called  to  find  a  Delaunay  triangulation of data randomly positioned on the surface of a
       sphere. CSSTRID is a double precision version of CSSTRI.

ACCESS

       To use CSSTRID, load the NCAR Graphics library ngmath.
