sphstat.plotting module

Functions for plotting data

• plotmapping() maps the azimuth from [-pi,pi) to [0, 2 * pi]

• plotdata() plots the data in a given projection

• plotdatalist() plots a number of samples

sphstat.plotting.plotdata(sample: dict, proj: str = 'mollweide', mflag: bool = False) → bool

Plot a sample represented in polar (colat, long) format in Mollweide projection

Parameters

• sample (dict) – Sample in rad format (polar)

• proj (str) – Projection type (either ‘mollweide’ or ‘lambert’)

• mflag (bool) – Flag to plot the median and the 95% cone of confidence

Returns

bool (True)

sphstat.plotting.plotdatalist(samplelist: list, labels: Optional[list] = None, proj: str = 'mollweide', mflag: bool = False) → bool

Superimposed plot of a list of samples

Parameters

• samplelist (list) – List containing multiple samples

• labels (list) – List of (string) labels e.g. [‘A’, ‘B’]

• proj (str) – Projection type (either ‘mollweide’ or ‘lambert’)

• mflag (bool) – Flag to plot the median and the 95% cone of confidence

Returns

Return True when completed

Return type

bool

sphstat.plotting.plotmapping(input: list)

Utility function to map an angle in [0, 2 * pi] to [-pi, pi]

Parameters

input (list) – Input angle in [0, 2 * pi] in radians to map to [-pi, pi]

Returns

Mapped angle in radians

Return type

float
