Indeed that is a bug. That is one of about a dozen missing symbols from the mapping that I just found be comparing the legacy Adobe Type1 name-to-Unicode mapping in matplotlib to the LaTeX-to-Unicode mapping that is currently used. I committed these to master here:

The problem is that I have a data set with ~1250 so I cant' do the sorting or finding the mean by hand. That's not a problem--that's programming! Even if you had a data set with five items you should be in the mind set that by hand is an 18th century approach. This will drive further progress

Hi, i want to interpolate irregular spaced satellite data onto a regular spaced grid. The regular spaced grid should have cell sizes of 1km^2. Is it possible to use basemap to create such a grid. It looked like it includes some facilities like that, but i am not sure if they are meant to be used
