[ncl-talk] adding shapefiles into my plots

[Tabish Ansari]

Hi Saurav

You can download shapefiles for Bangladesh at various resolutions here:
https://gadm.org/download_country_v3.html
then you need to do the following in your ncl script:
(Here's a piece of code from one of my scripts but you can adapt it to your
needs)

 ; MAKE PLOTS
   plot = wrf_map_overlays(a,wks,(/contour_pm25/),pltres,mpres)
  china_shp_name    = "/data1/tabish/Shapefiles/China/CHN_adm0.shp" ; PATH
TO SHAPEFILE
  lnres                  = True
  lnres at gsLineColor      = "black"
  lnres at gsLineThicknessF = 1
  china_id = gsn_add_shapefile_polylines(wks,plot,china_shp_name,lnres)
  draw(plot)       ; This will draw the map and the shapefile outlines.
  frame(wks)       ; Advance the frame

Good luck!

Cheers,

Tabish
