The irregularly-spaced data are interpolated onto regular latitude-longitude grids by weighting each station according to its distance and angle from the center of a search radius.
In addition to this, we also provide a simple way (Jones and Hulme, 1996) to grid the irregularly-spaced data points onto regular latitude-longitude grids by averaging all stations in grid-boxes.

The large area, or hemispheric, or global averages can be calculated dependent on the area represented by the grid-point or grid-box. The weight of latitude-longitude grid-points-boxes should be the cosine of the latitude of the ith grid-point-box.
These binaries (installable software) and packages are in development.
They may not be fully stable and should be used with caution. We make no claims about them.
