[SciPy-Dev] concern about using `scipy.interpolate.LSQSphereBivariateSpline`

[Andreas Hilboll]

Hi Phillip,

LSQSphereBivariateSpline sets s=0.0:


https://github.com/scipy/scipy/blob/master/scipy/interpolate/src/fitpack.pyf#L584

If you want smoothing, you can use SmoothSphereBivariateSpline, which is
also a wrapper for sphere.f, where you can set s to your liking.

Best,
  Andreas.
