It looks like you are creating a coastline mask (or a coastline mask + some other mask), and computing the ratio of two quantities in a particular window around each point. If your coastline covers a sufficiently large portion of the image, you may get quite a bit of mileage using an efficient convolution instead of summing the windows directly. For example, you could use scipy.signal.convolve2d with inputs being (nsidc_copy != NSIDC_COASTLINE_MIXED), (nsidc_copy == NSIDC_SEAICE_LOW & nsdic_copy == NSIDC_FRESHSNOW) for the frst array, and a (2*radius x 2*radius) array of ones for the second. You may have to center the block of ones in an array of zeros the same size as nsdic_copy, but I am not sure about that.
Another option you may want to try is implementing your window movement more efficiently. If you step your window center along using an algorithm like flood-fill, you can insure that there will be very large overlap between successive steps (even if there is a break in the coastline). That means that you can reuse most of the data you've extracted. You will only need to subtract off the non-overlapping portion of the previous window and add in the non-overlapping portion of the updated window. If radius is 16, giving you a 32x32 window, you go from summing ~1000 pixels per quantity of interest, to summing only ~120 if the window moves along a diagonal, and only 64 if it moves vertically or horizontally. While an algorithm like this will probably give you the greatest boost, it is a pain to implement. If I had to guess, this looks like L2 processing for a multi-spectral instrument. If you don't mind me asking, what mission is this for? I'm working on space-looking detectors at the moment, but have spent many years on the L0, L1b and L1 portions of the GOES-R ground system. - Joe On Wed, Mar 28, 2018 at 9:43 PM, Eric Wieser <wieser.eric+nu...@gmail.com> wrote: > Well, one tip to start with: > > numpy.where(some_comparison, True, False) > > is the same as but slower than > > some_comparison > > Eric > > On Wed, 28 Mar 2018 at 18:36 Moroney, Catherine M (398E) > <catherine.m.moro...@jpl.nasa.gov> wrote: >> >> Hello, >> >> >> >> I have the following sample code (pretty simple algorithm that uses a >> rolling filter window) and am wondering what the best way is of speeding it >> up.
