Select data table subsets based on multiple spatial criteria.
This is a filter that reads (x, y) or (longitude, latitude) positions from
the first 2 columns of *data* and uses a combination of 1-7 criteria to
pass or reject the records. Records can be selected based on whether or not
they are:
1. inside a rectangular region (**region** [and **projection**])
2. within *dist* km of any point in *pointfile*
3. within *dist* km of any line in *linefile*
4. inside one of the polygons in the *polygonfile*
5. inside geographical features (based on coastlines)
6. has z-values within a given range, or
7. inside bins of a grid mask whose nodes are non-zero
The sense of the tests can be reversed for each of these 7 criteria by
using the **reverse** option.

Parameters
----------
data : str or {table-like}
Pass in either a file name to an ASCII data table, a 2D
{table-classes}.
outfile : str
The file name for the output ASCII file.
{area_thresh}
resolution : str
*resolution*\ [**+f**].
Ignored unless **mask** is set. Selects the resolution of the coastline
data set to use ((**f**)ull, (**h**)igh, (**i**)ntermediate, (**l**)ow,
or (**c**)rude). The resolution drops off by ~80% between data sets.
[Default is **l**]. Append (**+f**) to automatically select a lower
resolution should the one requested not be available [Default is abort
if not found]. Note that because the coastlines differ in details it is
not guaranteed that a point will remain inside [or outside] when a
different resolution is selected.
gridmask : str
Pass all locations that are inside the valid data area of the grid
*gridmask*. Nodes that are outside are either NaN or zero.
reverse : str
[**cflrsz**].
Reverses the sense of the test for each of the criteria specified:
- **c** select records NOT inside any point's circle of influence.
- **f** select records NOT inside any of the polygons.
- **g** will pass records inside the cells with z equal zero of the
grid mask in **gridmask**.
- **l** select records NOT within the specified distance of any line.
- **r** select records NOT inside the specified rectangular region.
- **s** select records NOT considered inside as specified by **mask**
(and **area_thresh**, **resolution**).
- **z** select records NOT within the range specified by
**z_subregion**.
{projection}
mask : str or list
Pass all records whose location is inside specified geographical
features. Specify if records should be skipped (s) or kept (k) using
1 of 2 formats:
- *wet/dry*.
- *ocean/land/lake/island/pond*.
[Default is s/k/s/k/s (i.e., s/k), which passes all points on dry
land].
{region}
{verbose}
z_subregion : str
*min*\ [/*max*]\ [**+a**]\ [**+c**\ *col*]\ [**+i**].
Pass all records whose 3rd column (*z*; *col* = 2) lies within the
given range or is NaN (use **skiprows** to skip NaN records). If *max*
is omitted then we test if *z* equals *min* instead. This means
equality within 5 ULPs (unit of least precision;
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_in_the_last_place). Input file must
have at least three columns. To indicate no limit on min or max,
specify a hyphen (-). If your 3rd column is absolute time then remember
to supply ``coltypes="2T"``. To specify another column, append
**+c**\ *col*, and to specify several tests just repeat the
**z_subregion** option as many times as you have columns to test.
**Note**: When more than one **z_subregion** option is given then the
``reverse="z"`` option cannot be used. In the case of multiple tests
you may use these modifiers as well: **+a** passes any record that
passes at least one of your *z* tests [Default is all tests must pass],
and **+i** reverses the tests to pass record with *z* value NOT in the
given range. Finally, if **+c** is not used then it is automatically
incremented for each new **z_subregion** option, starting with 2.

Returns
-------
output : pandas.DataFrame or None
Return type depends on whether the ``outfile`` parameter is set:
- :class:`pandas.DataFrame` table if ``outfile`` is not set.
- None if ``outfile`` is set (filtered output will be stored in file
set by ``outfile``).
Example
-------
>>> import pygmt
>>> # Load a table of ship observations of bathymetry off Baja California
>>> ship_data = pygmt.datasets.load_sample_data(name="bathymetry")
>>> # Only return the data points that lie within the region between
>>> # longitudes 246 and 247 and latitudes 20 and 21
>>> out = pygmt.select(data=ship_data, region=[246, 247, 20, 21])
