|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| Column Name | Type | Description |
|
|
|
|
|-------------|------|-------------|
|
|
|
|
| value | numeric | Interpolated value at the given point, `-888.888` if the given point is out of the boundaries of the source points set |

|
|
|
Default values:
|
|
|
|
* -888.888: when using Barycentric, the target point is out of the realm of the input points
|
|
|
|
* -777.777: asking for a method not available
