Re: [Matplotlib-users] add cirlce around lat lon
thanks for the responses. Sebastians suggestion to use tissot function is exactly what I needed. map.tissot(lon, lat, r, 96) thanks again On Wed, Dec 7, 2011 at 6:36 PM, Thomas Lecocq thlec...@msn.com wrote: Dear, you can try my tutorial to achieve this properly : http://www.geophysique.be/2011/02/20/matplotlib-basemap-tutorial-09-drawing-circles/ Cheers, Thom ps : on the things to do when I have some time list : commit a method to the default basemap package to do this... -- Date: Tue, 6 Dec 2011 21:23:18 -0600 From: ben.r...@ou.edu To: questions.a...@gmail.com CC: Matplotlib-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [Matplotlib-users] add cirlce around lat lon On Tuesday, December 6, 2011, questions anon questions.a...@gmail.com wrote: I would like to draw a simple circle around a specified latitude and longitude but I cannot find an appropriate command.

[Matplotlib-users] add cirlce around lat lon
I would like to draw a simple circle around a specified latitude and longitude but I cannot find an appropriate command. I have tried using map.drawgreatcircle(myLON, myLAT,myLON, myLAT, linewidth=20,color='k') but this doesn't do anything or even map.drawgreatcircle(myLON+1, myLAT+1,myLON-1, myLAT-1, linewidth=2,color='k') and this appears to draw a line.
