I agree that it would be useful, but basemap doesn't support EPSG codes, so
this isn't fully possible in general.
On a side note, if you're ever just wanting to transform coordinates,
pyproj supports generic proj4 strings. (e.g. "proj =
pyproj.Proj(your_proj4_string)")
It might be possible to in
As an example, say I have a proj4 string defining a spatial reference system:
p4 = '+lon_0=0.0 +lat_ts=60.0 +R=6370997.0 +proj=stere +x_0=-0.0 +units=m
+y_0=4327039.11059 +lat_0=90.0'
Then one can construct a Basemap from this as:
map = Basemap(projection='stere', lon_0=0., lat_0=90, lat_ts=60
I think some examples would help. Which proj4 string are you looking to
use? How are you currently constructing the map?

Does anyone know if this is possible?

Hi,
Is it possible to create a Basemap instance directly from a proj4 string and
min/max values of the x and y coordinates?
Or is there a simple and safe way to construct Basemap input arguments/values
from a general proj.4 string?
