Hi Felow Ferret Users,
I would appreciate a pointer to resolve my problem. I need to
make frames for Google Earth animation, which requires Simple
Cylindrical projection a.k.a. Plate Caree.
I developed Ferret script, that can do waterer I want for
Polar Stereographic projection (I draw polar areas with ice
coverage). It includes
- data reading
- plotting land contours and map mesh
- plotting color-filled contours with custom palette
- overplotting isocontours on the top of this map
The very same script with a single line change (projection
change) refuses to plot the color-filled contours, while all
other operations are performed OK, including map, mesh,
and overpotting of isocontours in the end. The line I am
changing is
go mp_stereographic_north -42.5
instead I use
go mp_plate_carree -42.5
and subsequently comment out
go mp_aspect
which (commenting out or leaving in the scripts of this
second comand) results in predicable response and does not
affect the main problem)
Any similar experiences and/or ways to resolve the problem?
Also, working scripts with Plate Caree utilization for color
contouring in polar regions could be of great help. I am not
stick to my script, I easily can use another one that would make
Simple Cylindrical operational.
Great thanks to everyone responding,
