Hello Hal,
Is there an existing thorn that allows you to read in initial grid data from a file? I see EinsteinInitialData/IDFileADM, but that does not actually implement any reading.
The file reader in thorn IOUtil will do that for you. See $CACTUS/repos/carpet/Carpet/CarpetIOHDF5/test/input_initial_data.par for an example.
However, as far as I understand it, this will only allow you to read in data on the same grid (or a subset) that was written out. It will not interpolate from a different grid structure.
IDFileADM is just a bit of book-keeping to interface the Carpet file-reader with the ADMBase "initial_data" parameters.
