As one of the inputs to #827 we need to add a way to calculate and applying fringing. Some documents for reference come from David Kirkby: * [talk](https://confluence.slac.stanford.edu/display/LSSTDESC/SSim+2016-09-01) * [notebook](https://github.com/dkirkby/AstroCCD/blob/master/Fringing.ipynb)
Allow user to pass rectangle list to define inset axis. Should probably be tested some more...
Basemap is now [deprecated](https://matplotlib.org/basemap/users/intro.html#cartopy-new-management-and-eol-announcement) in favor of [cartopy](https://scitools.org.uk/cartopy/docs/latest/).
For our user base we should have `latlon = True` by default.
Basemap has the ability to draw continents (and even countries) without having the polygon lines go all over the place when they cross the map border. How does Basemap do...
There is an interesting feature of matplotlib that if the pixels of your pcolormesh are too small compared to the size of your axis they will disappear. This is an...
Pandas is raising this future warning when we are merging pixels ``` /home/s1/kadrlica/software/skymap/.conda/envs/skymap/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pandas/core/dtypes/dtypes.py:150: FutureWarning: elementwise comparison failed; returning scalar instead, but in the future will perform elementwise comparison if string...
@erykoff suggests an improvement to the map sampling scheme. ``` nside = healpy.get_nside(hpxmap.data) ipring,=np.where(hpxmap.data > healpy.UNSEEN) thetaMap,phiMap = healpy.pix2ang(nside, ipring) lonMap = np.degrees(phiMap) latMap = 90.0-np.degrees(thetaMap) hi,=np.where(lonMap > 180.0) #...
This is an issue in basemap that can be seen with functions like [`drawgreatcircle`](https://matplotlib.org/basemap/api/basemap_api.html#mpl_toolkits.basemap.Basemap.drawgreatcircle) and [`tissot`](https://matplotlib.org/basemap/api/basemap_api.html#mpl_toolkits.basemap.Basemap.tissot). I think that most cases can be fixed with a smart `roll` of the...
Several links on the wiki page for installation support are broken. https://github.com/ericvaandering/DocDB/wiki/Installing-DocDB Specifically: * create a MySQL DocDB database * customize DocDB * Common Problems The documentation information may be...
