cf-plot: code-light plotting for earth science and aligned research
Overview#
cf-plot allows you to produce and customise publication-quality contour, vector, line and more plots with the power of Python, matplotlib, Cartopy and cf-python in as few lines of code as possible.
It is designed to be a useful visualisation tool for environmental, earth and aligned sciences, for example to facilitate climate and meteorological research. cf-plot is developed and maintained by the NCAS-CMS group, part of NCAS.
