[Matplotlib-users] Basemap: What is the angular domain for coordinates?

2010-05-13 Thread Reckoner
How do I know if the angular domain for a map is Longitude \in {0,360} or Longitude \in {-180,180}? Or, for that matter, Latitude \in {-90,90} as opposed to: Latitude \in {0,180} Thanks! --

Thanks for your reply. >>> m = Basemap(resolution='c',projection='robin', lon_0=-120.) doesn't have lonmin, lonmax variables. However, when I do >>> m(*m(190,0),inverse=1) (-169.97, 0.0) Which implies that the angular domain for longitude is [-180.,180], right? Thanks
