Polar contour on top of polar map ?? [message #44206] Mon, 30 May 2005 08:59 Go to previous message

Please ! What is wrong with the the following program -
the polar map is fine, the contour is restricted by the
map limits, but is confined to less than half the
map area - a sector of about 60 degrees (terminated
at the pole, and with curved radii bondaries.)

I want the contour to overlay the map (or vice versa).

Thanks for any hint!

pp=!pi/180.

print,' .ps (1) or screen(2)?'
read,isel
if isel eq 1 then set_plot,'ps'
if isel eq 2 then set_plot, 'win' ;screen

!P.font=0
if isel eq 1 then device,/color,/portrait,yoffset=3.,ysize=21.;,scale_factor=1 .0
nlats=16 ;make this even!
minlat=90-nlats*2.5

zzz=fltarr(144,nlats)
for j=0,143 do along(j)=pp*(j*2.5); azim, radians

for i=0,nlats-1 do begin
for j=0,143 do begin

x= sin(2.*!pi*(i*2.5)/20.)
y= sin(2.*!pi*(j*2.5)/60. +4)

zzz(j,i)=100*(x+y)

endfor

if isel eq 1 then close ; so i can get idl.ps without exit idl
