Hello,
I am wondering if Basemap has the ability to plot a track across the Dateline? Plotting longitudes that go across the Dateline (e.g., [175,177,179,-179,-176]) wraps the track back around the globe when it goes from 179 to -179. Instead, I want them directly connected. My Basemap instance looks like:

m = Basemap(projection='merc',llcrnrlat = 10,urcrnrlat = 30,llcrnrlon = 160,\
                urcrnrlon = -160,lat_ts = 20,resolution = 'l',lon_0 = 180)

Am I screwed on this one?
Thanks,

Mike

Mike: There's no automagical way to do this. You either have to shift your map so the dateline is in the middle, or split you track into two segments.
