I would like to draw very, very simple maps of only europe in matplotlib / basemap, which takes very much time (around 10 seconds!). This is just unreal!? Setting of resolution is only "l" (low). I need to plot hundreds of those maps every few hours. This would be impossible!!? :(
Here is the very simple code: import matplotlib matplotlib.use('Agg') import matplotlib.pyplot as plt from mpl_toolkits.basemap import Basemap m = Basemap(projection='stere',lon_0=5,lat_0=90.0,rsphere=6371200.,\ llcrnrlon=-25.0,urcrnrlon=72.0,llcrnrlat=26.0,urcrnrlat=65.0,resolution='l') m.drawcoastlines(linewidth=0.2) m.drawcountries(linewidth=0.2) plt.savefig('/var/www/map.png') Hope you can help! :( Regards -- View this message in context: http://matplotlib.1069221.n5.nabble.com/Plotting-maps-with-matplotlib-basemap-very-slow-tp44755.html Sent from the matplotlib - users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ New Year.
