def grdtrack(points, grid, newcolname=None, outfile=None, **kwargs):
"""
Sample grids at specified (x,y) locations.
Grdtrack reads one or more grid files and a table with (x,y) [or (lon,lat)]
positions in the first two columns (more columns may be present). It
interpolates the grid(s) at the positions in the table and writes out the
table with the interpolated values added as (one or more) new columns. A
bicubic [Default], bilinear, B-spline or nearest-neighbor interpolation is
used, requiring boundary conditions at the limits of the region (see
*interpolation*; Default uses “natural” conditions (second partial
derivative normal to edge is zero) unless the grid is automatically
recognized as periodic.)

Parameters
----------
points : pandas.DataFrame or str
Either a table with (x, y) or (lon, lat) values in the first two
columns, or a filename (e.g. csv, txt format). More columns may be
present.
grid : xarray.DataArray or str
Gridded array from which to sample values from, or a filename (netcdf
format).
newcolname : str
Required if 'points' is a pandas.DataFrame. The name for the new column
in the track pandas.DataFrame table where the sampled values will be
placed.
outfile : str
Required if 'points' is a file. The file name for the output ASCII
file.
{V}
{n}
Returns
-------
track: pandas.DataFrame or None
Return type depends on whether the outfile parameter is set:
- pandas.DataFrame table with (x, y, ..., newcolname) if outfile is not
set
- None if outfile is set (track output will be stored in outfile)
