I am having some real trouble trying to plot nice things with Julia.
I first used PyPlot which I was happy with but I had to be able to change the angle on a 3D plots (in that case using surface) so I now use Plots directly with the camera speficication. I would like to remove the background on a 3D plot.
using PyPlot, the following command :
ax=gca(); ax:set_axis_off
works fine.
When using Plots, I tried the following :
using Plots; pyplot(grid=false)
and then my code for the surface, and it does not change the output.
I also tried the first example on this page :https://github.com/JuliaPlots/Plots.jl/pull/695 and grid specification does not work (grids are the same on every area of the layout).
I tried after updating every package and it still does not work.
Does anyone have an idea about what would the problem be please?
Thank you in advance !
I am working on a project that requires me to derive equations for some plots that I would get. Here I want to use an accelerometer to get a reading on the points in the Cartesian coordinates and use these to find the equations of the plot for further analysis of the equations.
The reading would be for the vibrations made by an object for which the vibration needs to be damped.
Currently I did not get any method to change a plot from excel to a mathematical equation. The plot points were derived from a smartphone app.
Equations for all three coordinates XYZ can be calibrated separately.
I am in dire need for a vb.net code to change the plot into equation. the charts would be an input to excel.
Any and all help is appreciated.
Thank You
PS. Please explain if posting a code.
I'm looking for a way to have interactive "circular panning" with matplotlib: when
interactively moving the axes to the left or the right, I want the data
(and axes labels) to "wrap around". (An (silly) example application would
be e.g. plotting annual average temperatures, and wanting to look at
whether anything special is happening around New Year.)
Is there a simple way to achieve this?
I want to create a contour plot with matlibplot and generate a shapefile from it so that I can use it in QGIS to display it.
Though it is possible to plot a map with matplotlib and then overlay with my contour plot, the choices of map sources are limited. It would be easier to export the contour plot in a shapefile and loaded in QGIS with a customized map.
Thanks!
There is a contour plugin available in QGIS, and it is based on the contouring functions of matplotlib. It's still a little bit buggy but hopefully that will be corrected in the future.
I'm completely new to ArcGIS and ArcMap, but someone suggested this program to me for a project I'm working on.
I would like to animate individual entities on a map, and was wondering if it is possible to do so in ArcMap. I asked this earlier here and a member directed me to a tutorial on animating in ArcGIS. The animation in the guide was over a map spread (ie. each pixel on the map displays, say, a different color to indicate population data in the area). However I realized that if I zoom in a lot, eventually the image will degenerate into pixels, which is why I need an actual object to mark a certain point. I checked some online tutorials and it seems like we can place markers on the map. Can someone tell me if it is possible to animate these markers (for example via a for-loop)? And if so, could you point me in a direction where to start?
Thanks in advance!
You can animate layers in ArcMap is the short answer. Its not as simple as using the timeline feature in Google Earth for example though. But then ArcMap is much more than just a visualization tool.
This help page on the ESRI web help looks like a good place to start.
I'm not 100% sure what you mean by the image degenerates into pixels. Are you saying that the markers were single points in the layer. Unlike Google Earth you are not confined to simply plotting points on the map. You can draw completely arbitrary shapes in ArcMap, which can be defined to cover actual areas of the map, so when you zoom-in the shape gets larger.
The way you need to load data into ArcMap to produce an animation isn't too simple. There might be other ways to do this, but the way I know of is to generate a NetCDF file. This file contains a 3D matrix of layer data, where each layer is separated through time. Because you generate a matrix, you are effectively placing a raster image over the map. Thus if you want to cover a large area, each matrix becomes large, and you multiply that by the number of time slices you wish to animate over.
Once you have a NetCDF file with your data in however, getting ArcMap to animate it and produce say a .avi file is pretty simple.
You could try just loading some of the example NetCDF datasets into ArcMap to see how/if they will work to get you started.
Hope that helps.
The upcoming v10 will have better time-aware capabilities, which will allow for animation.
