pyart.graph.GridMapDisplay

class pyart.graph.GridMapDisplay(grid, debug=False)[source]

A class for creating plots from a grid object using xarray with a cartopy projection.

Parameters

  • grid (Grid) – Grid with data which will be used to create plots.

  • debug (bool) – True to print debugging messages, False to supress them.

Variables

  • ~GridMapDisplay.grid (Grid) – Grid object.

  • ~GridMapDisplay.debug (bool) – True to print debugging messages, False to supress them.

initalize the object.
