- GridMapDisplay.plot_grid_raw(field, level=0, vmin=None, vmax=None, norm=None, cmap=None, mask_outside=False, title=None, title_flag=True, colorbar_flag=True, colorbar_label=None, colorbar_orient='vertical', ax=None, fig=None, alpha=None, ticks=None, ticklabs=None, **kwargs)[source]#
Plot the grid using xarray and cartopy.
Additional arguments are passed to Xarray’s pcolormesh function.
This function does not project the data into a map
- Parameters:
field (str) – Field to be plotted.
level (int) – Index corresponding to the height level to be plotted.
- Other Parameters:
vmin, vmax (float) – Lower and upper range for the colormesh. If either parameter is None, a value will be determined from the field attributes (if available) or the default values of -8, 64 will be used. Parameters are used for luminance scaling.
norm (Normalize or None, optional) – matplotlib Normalize instance used to scale luminance data. If not None the vmax and vmin parameters are ignored. If None, vmin and vmax are used for luminance scaling.
cmap (str or None) – Matplotlib colormap name. None will use default colormap for the field being plotted as specified by the Py-ART configuration.
mask_outside (bool) – True to mask data outside of vmin, vmax. False performs no masking.
title (str) – Title to label plot with, None will use the default generated from the field and level parameters. Parameter is ignored if the title_flag is False.
title_flag (bool) – True to add title to plot, False does not add a title.
colorbar_flag (bool) – True to add a colorbar with label to the axis. False leaves off the colorbar.
colorbar_label (str) – Colorbar label, None will use a default label generated from the field information.
colorbar_orient (‘vertical’ or ‘horizontal’) – Colorbar orientation.
ax (Axis) – Axis to plot on. None will use the current axis.
fig (Figure) – Figure to add the colorbar to. None will use the current figure.
alpha (float or None) – Set the alpha transparency of the grid plot. Useful for overplotting radar over other datasets.
ticks (array) – Colorbar custom tick label locations.
ticklabs (array) – Colorbar custom tick labels.
