[SciPy-user] 2D interpolation from a set of irregularly spaced positions in python?

[Eric Emsellem]

Hi,

I have a very simple problem which I am not able to solve with my 
current knowledge of scipy/python/...

I have a set of positions X, Y, and intensities Z provided in 1D arrays.
The positions are NOT at all on a regular grid.

Now for a new position Xnew, Ynew I would like to get the *interpolated* 
Znew value, and if possible trying different schemes such as "bilinear", 
"cubic", etc... I also would like to know if my point is EXTRApolated or 
not so I can decide what to do (either take the extrapolated value or 
exclude it).

Any suggestion on this simple item?
Thanks in advance

Eric
