Java application which enables the user to plot raster images of geo-gridded data from netCDF datasets
Panoply is an utility that enable user to plot raster image. Depending on the data, it can draw global longitude-latitude images or pole-to-pole latitude-vertical images.
Here are some key features of "Panoply":
· Slice specific latitude-longitude or latitude-vertical arrays from larger multidimensional variables
· Combine two arrays in one plot by differencing, summing or averaging
· Plot longitude-latitude data as global maps or zonal averages
· Plot longitude-latitude data using any of over 40 global map projections, or just plot a particular region
· Overlay continent outlines or masks on longitude-latitude plots
· Use any PAL, ACT or CWC color table for scale colorbar
· Save plots to disk in GIF, PDF, PNG or PS form
Requirements:
· Java
What's New in This Release
· Try to check for multiple simple lon-lat grids in a dataset, even if it violates convention.
· Added "Export as labeled text" option for source variables.
· Caching directory (if necessary; e.g., when creating GBX fies) moved to standard location, and flushed when program exists.
· Bugfix: Log-10 scale checkbox was not messaging data handler.
· Use ScaleDescription to manage scale min and max, tick values, and contours.
