Dear Jeff, 2008/12/7 Jeff Whitaker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > Mauro: Just set the llrncrlat,urcrnrlon appropriately. For instance, > llcrnrlon=0, urcrnrlon=360 will produce a map centered on the dateline while > llcrnrlon=-180, urcrnrlon=180 will produce a map centered on Greenwich.
Thanks! I had not figured out that the decimal coordinates used by Basemap range from 0 to 360 (and not just from -180 to 180). Using this tip, I could also create a map centered on the Indian Ocean. BTW, by varying the llcrnrlat and urcrnrlat, can one also create maps centered on the North and South poles using a Equirectangular projection? With best regards, -- Dr. Mauro J.
