+You will find below a gallery of maps made with [[other:python:matplotlib_by_jyp|matplotlib]] and [[https://scitools.org.uk/cartopy/|cartopy]]
+<wrap hi>Be sure to also have at least a quick look at the examples available in the [[https://scitools.org.uk/cartopy/docs/latest/gallery/|Cartopy Gallery]]!</wrap>
+You can get more python information on the [[other:python:jyp_steps|JYP's recommended steps for learning python]] page.

+    * Use a trick to make sure that the black plot border is correctly plotted above everything (''top_plot.outline_patch.set_zorder(50)''). Note: the plot border problem in ''cartopy 0.17.0'' has been [[https://github.com/SciTools/cartopy/issues/1364|fixed in a future version of cartopy]] and the //outline_patch trick// will not be required at some point
+===== Megabiome maps =====

+  * Load the NetCDF model data with ''cdms2'', and the csv observations' data with ''pandas''
+  * Use ''matplotlib''+''cartopy'' to create the plot
+    * Create three plots on a 2x2 layout with an //Orthographic// projection (centered on Europe) and a common colorbar. Explicitly make the 4th plot //invisible// in order to make space for plotting the colorbar (''colorbar_plot.background_patch.set_visible(False)'' and ''colorbar_plot.outline_patch.set_visible(False)'')
+    * Use a square (''figsize=(8, 8)'') figure size in order to improve the page layout
+    * Use the same color scale for both the model data (plotted with ''pcolormesh'') and the observation data (plotted with ''scatter'')
+    * Use a //dictionary trick// for easily using the same gridlines parameters for all the maps
+    * Use a common //listed colormap// to plot the discrete megabiome values (with a //norm// associated with the megabiome values) and the observations (with a **different //norm//** associated with the observations)
+    * The three plots have the same colormap, but we create a standalone colormap (created with ''mpl.colorbar.ColorbarBase'') in the Bottom Left quadrant. We use ''UR_plot.get_position().bounds'' to determine the exact location of the Upper Right and Lower Left plots, and combine the coordinates to create the axis (with ''my_page.add_axes'') where the colorbar will be plotted
