Announcement - mplstereonet v0.2
=========================
mplstereonet provides lower-hemisphere equal-area and equal-angle
stereonets for matplotlib.
Download

About
---------
Stereonets are a type of plot commonly used in the geosciences for
visualizing and analyzing orientation data.
Orientations of linear and planar features are plotted as the intersection
of the feature with a hemisphere. (Therefore, linear features plot as
points and planar features plot as lines.)
mplstereonet provides plotting of planes (measured as strikes and dips),
poles to planes, and lineations (measured as rakes along a plane or as
plunges and bearings).
Additionally, mplstereonet provides orientation density contouring using a
variety of standard methods (e.g. "Kamb" contouring, etc).
Getting Started
----------------------
The easiest way to get started is to have a look at the examples:

Additionally, the readme has an overview and various examples:

Changes
-------------
New features in version 0.2 include:
- Density contouring of orientation data using a variety of methods
- Equal-angle as well as equal-area stereonets
- A variety of parsing utilities
- Geometric analysis utilities (e.g. plane intersections)
Thank you all very much!
