9. OUTPUT_STAGGER : A character string specifying the grid staggering to which the<br />
field is to be interpolated. For <strong>ARW</strong> domains, possible values are U, V, and M; for NMM<br />
domains, possible values are HH and VV. Default value for <strong>ARW</strong> is M; default value for<br />
NMM is HH.<br />
10. LANDMASK_WATER : An integer value that is the index of the category within the<br />
field that represents water. When landmask_water is specified in the table section of a<br />
field for which dest_type=categorical, the LANDMASK field will be computed from<br />
the field using the specified category as the water category. The keywords<br />
landmask_water and landmask_land are mutually exclusive. Default value is null (i.e.,<br />
a landmask will not be computed from the field).<br />
11. LANDMASK_LAND : An integer value that is the index of the category within the<br />
field that represents land. When landmask_water is specified in the table section of a<br />
field for which dest_type=categorical, the LANDMASK field will be computed from<br />
the field using the specified category as the land category. The keywords<br />
landmask_water and landmask_land are mutually exclusive. Default value is null (i.e.,<br />
a landmask will not be computed from the field).<br />
12. MASKED : Either land or water, indicating that the field is not valid at land or<br />
water points, respectively. If the masked keyword is used for a field, those grid points that<br />
are of the masked type (land or water) will be assigned the value specified by<br />
fill_missing. Default value is null (i.e., the field is not masked).<br />
13. FILL_MISSING : A real value used to fill in any missing or masked grid points in the<br />
interpolated field. Default value is 1.E20.<br />
14. HALT_ON_MISSING : Either yes or no, indicating whether geogrid should halt with<br />
a fatal message when a missing value is encountered in the interpolated field. Default<br />
value is no.<br />
15. DOMINANT_CATEGORY : When specified as a character string, the effect is to<br />
cause geogrid to compute the dominant category from the fractional categorical field, and<br />
to output the dominant category field with the name specified by the value of<br />
dominant_category. This option can only be used for fields with<br />
dest_type=categorical. Default value is null (i.e., no dominant category will be<br />
computed from the fractional categorical field).<br />
16. DOMINANT_ONLY : When specified as a character string, the effect is similar to<br />
that of the dominant_category keyword: geogrid will compute the dominant category<br />
from the fractional categorical field and output the dominant category field with the name<br />
specified by the value of dominant_only. Unlike with dominant_category, though,<br />
when dominant_only is used, the fractional categorical field will not appear in the<br />
geogrid output. This option can only be used for fields with dest_type=categorical.<br />
