Jeff, I still don't know how to either remove this artifact or fill my arrays with values to remove empty regions, and I'll make a last attempt to resolve it
I uploaded a data file here: http://scqp.ulb.ac.be/20080821.b56 The actual code snippet is here: http://snipplr.com/view/8307/map-plotting-python-code-temporary/ I hope you'll be able to reproduce it, I set the cmap to winter for you to see the gap... setting it to hot will make the grayish border visible in high resolution by zooming it... I think the border (not the empty zone) could be an artifact with the hot colormap Antoine De Pauw Collaborateur de recherches, Informatique - Research collaborator, IT Laboratoire de chimie quantique et photophysique - Quantum chemistry and photophysics laboratory Université Libre de Bruxelles - ULB -----Original Message----- From: Jeff Whitaker [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: lundi 22 septembre 2008 13:59 To: De Pauw Antoine Cc: 'John Hunter'; 'Matplotlib Users' Subject: Re: [Matplotlib-users] Information request De Pauw Antoine wrote: > Jeff, > > I included here a figure where you'll see the border problem for imshow in > my case > > http://img217.imageshack.us/img217/5240/testfigzp3.png > > The border wraps at -180 and 180 to form the white line > > PS: it is atmospheric ice and not SO2, I just omitted to change the title ^^ > > Antoine De Pauw > Collaborateur de recherches, Informatique - Research collaborator, IT > Laboratoire de chimie quantique et photophysique - Quantum chemistry and > photophysics laboratory > Université Libre de Bruxelles - ULB > Antoine: I hate to keep repeating myself - but we can't do much if you don't provide a self-contained script, that I can run, which reproduces the problem. My guess is that the line along the dateline, and the point at the South Pole are missing values (which griddata set to missing because they are outside the extent of the data) - but that's just a guess until I can reproduce it. -Jeff > > -----Original Message----- > From: Antoine De Pauw [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: jeudi 18 septembre 2008 17:23 > To: Jeff Whitaker; [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Cc: 'John Hunter'; 'Matplotlib Users' > Subject: re:Re: [Matplotlib-users] Information request > > Jeff, > > No the example doesn't show that line > > If I reduce the amount of data, the border will be on every side of the plot > > I'll show you an orthographic plot with no maskinf tomorrow and you will see > the problem easily, it wraps in a white line along the 0° meridian and a > white circle in the pole > > I think it's the imshow layer that is not totally transparent on the map > background..
