Re: [Matplotlib-users] Quiver plot of a netcdf file

Thanks for the suggestion to look at the demo, I had missed it in my initial look through. The quiver_demo seems to be broken up into three sections. The first section initializes the information for the the two quiver plots (sections two and three). This seems like the logical place to start for

Hello, Now that I have correctly imported the NetCDF file and set up the kind of projection I am interested in having the data displayed over I am having trouble plotting my data with the quiver function. I am interested in plotting the principal vectors of the stress field onto a Mercator proje

[Matplotlib-users] Quiver plot of a netcdf file

2009-06-11 Thread JPKay
Hello, I am trying to use matplotlib to create a quiver plot of a NetCDF file with the extension .nc. The Netcdf file is a series of arrays that contain information about the stress tensors on a globe. I am struggling to import the file into python and having the quiver data show up. To import th
