Advanced Plotting Tutorial

The NCAR/UCAR virtual Python Tutorial Seminar Series continues with Advanced Plotting Techniques on Wednesday, October 27th at 1 PM Mountain. This session will be led by Anissa Zacharias.

The content for this tutorial is hosted on Anissa’s matplotlib-tutorial GitHub repository (the same repository as her previous plotting tutorials).

Preparation

If you did attend the previous plottling tutorials (and have cloned this repository before):

• Stash their local changes with git add . and git stash

• Pull in upstream changes to the repository with git pull

• Update the conda environment with conda env update -f environment.yml

If you did not attend the past plotting-related tutorials:

• Check your conda install if this is the first tutorial in the series you are joining us for with conda --version and if necessary install by following these instructions.

• Navigate to Anissa’s Matplotlib Tutorial Github Repository.

• Clone this repository by running git clone https://github.com/anissa111/matplotlib-tutorial

• Create a Conda environment from the environment.yml file with the terminal by first moving into the matplotlib-tutorial directory with cd matplotlib-tutorial and then typing conda env update --file environment.yml

• Activate your environment in the terminal with conda activate matplotlib-tutorial.

• Test your installation by launching JupyterLab with jupyter lab.

It would be beneficial to review the past plotting-related tutorials: Matplotlib, Cartopy, and Plotting with GeoCAT.
