mc_elevation_file fileThe expected format of the elevation file is:
Nx Ny dx dy ix iy elevationwhere Nx and Ny are the number of grid boxes in x- and y-direction, dx and dy are the size of the grid boxes in km. In the second and the following lines the indices in x- and y-direction and the elevation in km at this point are specified.
Attention: While the other files refer to grid boxes,
the elevation is defined at grid points. It has to be this
way because each "elevation pixel" contains a surface
which is defined by the four cornes of the pixel. If the
grid covers an area of 200x200 km
and the pixel sizes
are dx = 1km and dy = 1km, the elevation has to be defined
at 201x201 points (ix = 1 .. Nx, iy = 1 .. Ny).
