Sample Time Steps

The Sample Time Steps tool creates a new dataset from an existing dataset. The user selects the beginning and ending time steps from the existing dataset and then specifies a time step size and the time step units for the output dataset. If an output dataset time falls between input dataset time steps then linear interpolation is used to determine the output dataset values at the sample time.

Input Parameters

  • Input scalar dataset to sample from (transient data sets only) – Select the existing scalar dataset to sample from.
  • Select input scalar dataset starting time (beginning of sample interval) – Starting time step.
  • Select input scalar dataset ending time (end of sample interval) – Ending time step.
  • Time step for output scalar data – Enter the change between sampled times.
  • Time step units for output scalar data set – Select the units for the new dataset such as seconds, minutes, hours, days, or years.

Output Parameters

  • Name for output scalar data set – Enter the name for output dataset.
