Hi,
I've been trawling round the internet for a while trying to work out
if basemap could be made to plot using a UTM zone projection. I've
found some references to pyproj that could be used to convert out of a
UTM projection, but I haven't found any references to defining a
custom projection for basemap. Is it possible?
Also, there is not a lot of documentation regarding pyproj and I find
this a little odd considering it comes packaged with basemap.
Many Thanks,
Mat
Mat: Basemap can plot in the tranverse mercator projection
(projecton='tmerc') - UTM zones are transverse mercator with specific
lat/lon boundaries and a WGS84 ellipsoid. I suppose I could add UTM zone
support if there is enough demand for it.
