Resampling times series to the same integer timebase

Share icon

Hello, I am new to Igor and wondered if anyone could help, I have searched the forum but not quite finding the answer I need

I am working with time series: the measurements are made at different times of calendar years and are unevenly spaced. The Y values are decimal years (2004.3, 2004.7, 2005.1, 2005.4 etc)

I want to resample each time series by fitting a best fit spline and then interpolate the spline value for the top of the year i.e. obtain a series of Y values for the integer X value such that all my data series are scaled to the same timebase.

I would be very grateful for any guidance!

Thanks in advance and apologies if this has been covered before....

If you have not already done it, do the first half of the Igor guided tour. It is essential. Choose Help->Getting Started.

I don't really understand the question but it might be helpful if you execute this command and read the help topic that it displays:

hrodstein: thank you! I had done the tours etc but didn't appreciate that converting XY data to a waveform did what I was looking for! The link was very helpful.

Thanks again, dave
