[ncl-talk] Masking Data with NCL Map Databases

[Clapp, Corey Elstein]

Hi Rick,


Thanks for your response, I hope my question isn't redundant with the available documentation. The examples provided that use the built-in map database seem to be doing so with map resources and so the masking is only occurring with what is drawn on a plot.


I was looking to use the built-in map databases to mask a dataset before plotting. In other words using a built-in database as the marray for the mask function, or using a built-in database as the shapefile in shapefile_mask_data function.


Thanks,

Corey

Hi,

There are a number of examples of masking with the built-in map database at:

Do you need to do something more specific?

HTH...

Hi,


I was wondering if it were possible to mask data using the areas of the NCL map databases (Earth 1-4) instead of using a shapefile.


Thanks,

Corey
