This is because of a subtle difference in how pcolor-like functions and
contour-like functions work. I always forget which is which, but one
assumes that the z value lies on the vertices of the grid while the other
assumes that it lies in the middle of each grid point. This is why you see
them slightly offset from each other.
I hope that clarifies everything for you.
