The BlockModel element is used to store all types of block model. Different types of block model can be described using the grid and subblocks properties.
.. autoclass:: omf.blockmodel.BlockModel
The blocks of a block model can lie on either a regular or tensor grid. For sub-blocked models this only applies to the parent blocks.
.. autoclass:: omf.blockmodel.RegularGrid
.. autoclass:: omf.blockmodel.TensorGrid
.. autoclass:: omf.blockmodel.RegularSubblocks
.. autoclass:: omf.blockmodel.FreeformSubblocks
Attributes is a list of :ref:`attributes <attributes>`.
For block models location='parent_blocks', or the backward compatible
location='cells', places attribute values on the parent blocks. There must be a
value for each parent block and ordering is such that as you move down the attribute
array the U index increases fastest, then V, and finally W.
Using location='vertices' instead puts the attribute values on the parent block
corners. The ordering is the same.
Sub-blocked models can still have attributes on their parent blocks using the above modes,
or on the sub-blocks using location='subblocks'. For sub-blocks the ordering
matches the corners array.
