OK...I've tried using Gridded1DSet with the following constructor:

//field1 is a FieldImpl with FunctionType (Real): 
//(Time) -> (MinTemp, MaxTemp)
Gridded1DSet validSet = Gridded1DSet(field1.getDomainSet().getType(),
                                     field1.getDomainSet().getSamples(),
                                     field1.getDomainSet().getLength());

And then resampled like this:

field1 = (FieldImpl)field1.resample(validSet, Data.WEIGHTED_AVERAGE,
                                    Data.NO_ERRORS);

We were trying to create an identical field to the original one to learn
how to use the resample function but it seems to fail because all the
values that we get in the field become NaN.

Our data (with one NaN) looks like this:

time = 0, 10800, 21600, 32400, 43200, 54000, 64800, 75600, 86400, 97200,
       108000, 118800, 129600, 140400, 151200, 162000;
MinTemp = 33,32,37,23,30,30,32,30,31,31,31,31,18,21,12,12;
MaxTemp = 30,NaN,20,25,25,20,25,27,28,29,30,29,27.5,30,30.4,15;

But our output is this:

time = 0, 10800, 21600, 32400, 43200, 54000, 64800, 75600, 86400, 97200,
       108000, 118800, 129600, 140400, 151200, 162000;
MinTemp = NaN, NaN, NaN, NaN, NaN, NaN, NaN, NaN, NaN, NaN, NaN, NaN, NaN,
          NaN, NaN, NaN;
MaxTemp = NaN, NaN, NaN, NaN, NaN, NaN, NaN, NaN, NaN, NaN, NaN, NaN, NaN,
          NaN, NaN, NaN;

Thanks in advance.

Eug.
