Point

class emg3d.electrodes.Point(coordinates)[source]

Bases: emg3d.electrodes.Wire

A point electrode is defined by its center, azimuth, and elevation.

A Point is a special case of a Wire that consists of only one electrode, and has therefore no length (infinitesimal small dipole). It is principally used by receivers to sample the field at a given point.

Note

Use any of the Tx*/Rx* classes to create sources and receivers, not this class.
