Ok... how about this?
import numpy as np
from mpl_toolkits.basemap import Basemap
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
# generate some random data - i.e. what would be an image of the world, say
different
# land covers
data = np.random.randint(10,27,100*67).reshape(100, 67)
# I want to draw a boundary round each land cover type, so
# classify a new array
data2 = np.where(data == 10, 1, data)
data2 = np.where(data == 11, 1, data)
data2 = np.where(data == 13, 2, data)
data2 = np.where(data == 14, 2, data)
data2 = np.where(data == 15, 2, data)
data2 = np.where(data == 16, 2, data)
data2 = np.where(data == 18, 3, data)
data2 = np.where(data == 19, 3, data)
data2 = np.where(data == 20, 3, data)
data2 = np.where(data == 26, 4, data)
data2 = np.where(data == 27, 4, data)
plt.contour(data2)
plt.show()
sys.exit()
this pops up a contour plot...
Now what if as I do I want to overlay this on a basemap plot...
import numpy as np
from mpl_toolkits.basemap import Basemap
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
# generate some random data - i.e. what would be an image of the world, say
different
# land covers
data = np.random.randint(10,27,100*67).reshape(100, 67)
# I want to draw a boundary round each land cover type, so
# classify a new array
data2 = np.where(data == 10, 1, data)
data2 = np.where(data == 11, 1, data)
data2 = np.where(data == 13, 2, data)
data2 = np.where(data == 14, 2, data)
data2 = np.where(data == 15, 2, data)
data2 = np.where(data == 16, 2, data)
data2 = np.where(data == 18, 3, data)
data2 = np.where(data == 19, 3, data)
data2 = np.where(data == 20, 3, data)
data2 = np.where(data == 26, 4, data)
data2 = np.where(data == 27, 4, data)
fig = plt.figure(figsize=(8, 6))
m = Basemap(llcrnrlon=1.5, llcrnrlat=10.5, urcrnrlon=3.5, urcrnrlat=13.5,
resolution='c', projection='cyl')
ax = fig.add_axes([0.1, 0.1, 0.6, 0.7])
m.ax = ax
delta = 0.03
x = np.arange(1.5, 3.5, delta)
y = np.arange(10.5, 13.5, delta)
X, Y = np.meshgrid(x, y)
im = m.imshow(data, interpolation='nearest', cmap=plt.cm.jet)
m.contour(data2, X, Y, color='black')
plt.show()
This only plots the basemap without the contours?
Many thanks,
Martin
