definition mvl_flexpart_title(...)
Generates a Text Plotting object to provide title for plotting FLEXPART output GRIB fields. This function uses this set of named keyword arguments:
source:The FLEXPART output GRIB file.data: The FLEXPART output GRIB as a fieldset. It takes precedence oversource.fontsize: Is the character height in cm. The default is 0.3 cm.units: The units string to display. If it is set to "header" the units are taken from the GRIB header. The default is an empty string
Example:
# if g is a fieldset containing FLEXPART output
title=flexpart_build_title(data: g,fontsize: 0.3,units: "ng m**-3")
plot(g,title)
Anchor mvl_geocircle mvl_geocircle
definition mvl_geocircle(lat : number, lon : number,radius : number, resolution : number)
Plots a circle with a given radius in km onto a non-cylindrical map projection. Internally, the circle is split into a number of segments and the returned result is an Input Visualiser object which can be passed to the plot() command along with an optional Graph Plotting object.
The first three parameters specify the centre and the radius (in km) of the circle. Parameter resolution defines the number of line segments to use to make up the circle.
The usage of this function is demonstrated via the Geocircle on Map Example from the Gallery.
Anchor mvl_geoline mvl_geoline
definition mvl_geoline(lat1 : number, lon1 : number, lat2 : number, lon2 : number, incrm : number)
Plots a straight line onto a non-cylindrical map projection. Internally, the line is split into a number of segments and the returned result is an Input Visualiser object which can be passed to the plot() command along with an optional Graph Plotting object.
The first four parameters define the end-points of the line. Parameter incrm specifies the increment, in degrees, into which the line should be split.
The usage of this function is demonstrated via the Geoline on Map Example from the Gallery.
Anchor plot plot
plot(...)
Generates a plot using the specified output device.
Anchor mvl_regular_layout mvl_regular_layout
definition mvl_regular_layout(view: definition, page_columns: number, page_rows: number, subpage_columns: number, subpage_rows: number)
definition mvl_regular_layout(view: definition, page_columns: number, page_rows: number, subpage_columns: number, subpage_rows: number, plot_area: list)
Creates a list of plot pages arranged in a regular grid using the specified view. Each plot page contains a set of (one or more) subframes, each arranged in a regular grid. The output is suitable for input into the function plot_superpage(). When a 6th argument is specified it defines the plot area the layout will occupy in the output. It is given as a list of [TOP, BOTTOM, LEFT, RIGHT] where the values are specified in percentages (0-100).
Example:
# create a 2x1 layout with the default geo view
page_list = mvl_regular_layout(geoview(), 1, 2, 1, 1)
# create a display window using this set of pages
dw = plot_superpage(pages: page_list)
definition thermo_parcel_area(parcel: definition)
definition thermo_parcel_area(parcel: definition, pos_colour: string, neg_colour: string)
Returns a set of coloured areas from a thermo parcel path object (the result of the thermo_parcel_path() function). The function returns a list of Input Visualiser and Graph Plotting icon that can be directly used in a plot() command. See the Parcel method on Skew-T Example from the Gallery for its usage.
definition xy_curve(x:vector, y: vector, colour: string, style: string, thickness: number)
definition xy_curve(x: list, y: list, colour: string, style: string, thickness: number)
Convenience function to build a curve to be plotted in a Cartesian View with the given colour, style and thickness. The function returns a list of Input Visualiser and Graph Plotting icon that can be directly used in a plot() command.
