pyart.graph.gridmapdisplay.GridMapDisplay.plot_basemap

GridMapDisplay.plot_basemap(lat_lines=None, lon_lines=None, resolution='l', area_thresh=10000, auto_range=True, min_lon=-92, max_lon=-86, min_lat=40, max_lat=44, ax=None)[source]

Plot a basemap.

Parameters :

lat_lines, lon_lines : array or None

Locations at which to draw latitude and longitude lines. None will use default values which are resonable for North America maps.

auto_range : bool

True to determine map ranges from the grid_lats and grid_lons attribute. False will use the min_lon, max_lon, min_lat, and max_lat parameters for the map range.

min_lat, max_lat, min_lon, max_lon : float

Latitude and longitude ranges for the map projection region in degrees. These parameter are not used if auto_range is True.

resolution : ‘c’, ‘l’, ‘i’, ‘h’, or ‘f’.

Resolution of boundary database to use. See Basemap documentation for details.

area_thresh : int

Basemap area_thresh parameter. See Basemap documentation.

ax : axes or None.

Axis to add the basemap to, if None the current axis is used.
