How do I interpolate the monitor data at various coordinate values?

The simulation data is stored as a DataArray object using the xarray package. You can think of it as a dataset where data is stored as a large multi-dimensional array (like a numpy array) and the coordinates along each of the dimensions are specified, so it is easy to work with.

You can use the interp() method to interpolate data at certain coordinates. For example:

# Run the simulation and get the data.
sim_data = tidy3d.web.run(simulation, task_name="task", path="data/data.hdf5", verbose=True)

# Get all the data from a field monitor.
field_data = sim_data["field"]

# Interpolate field data at a specific frequency.
field_freq = field_data.interp(f=200e14)

# Interpolate field data at a specific position.
field_pos = field_data..interp(x=0, y=0, z=0)
