Examples

# how to generate a new field object.
year <- sort(rep(1991:2000,12))
month <- rep(1:12,length(1991:2000))
n <-length(year)
lon <- seq(-30,40,by=5); nx <- length(lon)
lat <- seq(40,70,by=5); ny <- length(lat)
# Time dimension should come first, space second.
y <- matrix(rnorm(nx*ny*n),n,nx*ny)
index <- as.Date(paste(year,month,1,sep="-"))
Y <- as.field(y,index=index,lon=lon,lat=lat,param="noise",unit="none")
map(Y)
