I have some LVIS Lidar data in hdf5 format.
The data has Lat and Long co-ordinates, so I have been able to visualise them on a map using Basemap:
f = h5py.File('ILVIS1B_GA2016_0304_R1701_043591.h5','r')
LONG = f['/LON0/']
LAT = f['/LAT0/']
X = LONG[...]
Y = LAT[...]
m = Basemap(projection='merc',llcrnrlat=-0.5,urcrnrlat=0.5,\
llcrnrlon=9,urcrnrlon=10,lat_ts=0.25,resolution='i')
m.drawcoastlines()
m.drawcountries()
parallels = np.arange(-9.,10.,0.5)
m.drawparallels(parallels,labels=[False,True,True,False])
meridians = np.arange(-1.,1.,0.5)
m.drawmeridians(meridians,labels=[True,False,False,True])
m.drawmapboundary(fill_color='white')
x,y = m(X, Y)
scatter = plt.scatter(x,y)
m.scatter(x,y)
plt.show()
This gets me this, where the orange bands are very dense points:
The hdf5 file also has the full waveform data for each mapped point (each datapoint is a reflection detected at the sensor, as a function of time) so that each of the orange points has data associated with it like:
Ultimately, I would like to be able to click on any of the orange points and for the subsequent waveform to be displayed. I have looked into interactive plots for this and have come across a number of libraries (mpl3d, plotly etc).
I'm having some trouble getting my head around some of these and how I can get my data into the examples - my python isn't up to this level. Does anyone have any advice on where to start? Which libraries would be best suited to this? A little help to understand the basics would be appreciated.
Apologies there is no direct question here, I'm just after some info from the knowledgable community.
The question seems to be: How do I tackle a task I have no clue how to solve?
Step 1: Search for a possible solution. It may happen that someone else has already solved your problem. This will mostly not be the case, but you may be lucky.
Step 2: Abstract the task. What would be the general problem that a lot of people might have and for which there might be a solution? Does it need to be hdf5 files? No. Is georeferencing important? Maybe, but one could neglect for the moment. Which requirements are really important, which not?
Step 3: Search again. You will have more success now for finding similar or related problems.
Step 4: Look at the tools in use. Make a list of possible tools and check against your requirements. Interactivity, Application or web-based, accuracy etc.
Step 5: Decide for one tool and go for it. Start with a general case study. Can I plot a map on the left and a graph on the right side using this tool? If not, find out why - maybe there is a general problem with this, maybe there is just an implementation detail missing. At this point you may ask a question about the case study problem, specifying the tool in use and providing the code that gives the problem. Do not think about your actual problem until this is solved.
Step 6: Proceed and try to add interactivity. Can I get something to happen when clicking? Again treat this independent of the actual problem. Search for solutions and if there none, ask a question about it.
Step 7: Proceed further up to the point where you're truely stuck. Now is the time to finally ask a question here, but with all the details that have brought you down to step 7 inside the question.
May be my question sounds very basic but i have a confusion. I want to represent matrix in the following form in the block diagram of the labVIEW, not front panel. How can i make such matrices using block diagram not by front panel??? Can someone help me?
cluster of matrices
These are the simple steps to achieve your request:
You can access any matrix using "unbundle by name"
I just downloaded libsvm-3.17 abt two weeks ago. I tried heart_scale (dataset provided in the libsvm-3.17 package) with easy.py. An image or plot is produced (from gnuplot) to illustrate the best c and best gamma. I cannot post the image here because I am new here and do not have enough reputation.
I would like to ask from the many colors curves in the plot, how to extract from the plot that the best log2(c)=11 (which gives c=2048) and the best log2(gamma)=-13 (which gives gamma = 0.0001220703125).
Thank you very much.
the chosen parameters are reported by easy.py (cannot run it now, but you will find them). the plot is just a visual aid to manually verify the parameter neighborhood. with some experience you can interpret the diagram. without experience simply trust easy.py
I want to use AutoCAD to generate a 3D model which is composed of many basic 3D geometries such as sphere, cube, etc.
I have the dimensions and the origin and orientation of the local coordinate system of the basic geometries. The data are stored in an Excel file. Each row of the excel data corresponds to one geometry and the columns are for dimensions, origin coordinates, and orientations. The data format is defined for each type of geometry.
I wanted to use AutoLisp or VBA or some other macro tool for AutoCAD to automate this process so that when the data is changed, I just need to run the macro to read the data and regenerate the AutoCAD 3D model.
What is the best solution?
There is no "best" solution for the general case. If you have experience with AutoLISP, use AutoLISP. If you have and use Visual Studio, use the ObjectARX .NET API. You could also write an Excel macro that generates a simple script file, use VBA inside AutoCAD, or drive AutoCAD from within Excel. The "best" way in your case is whichever way you feel most comfortable with.
Maybe someone know how to solve this problem:
I Have XY Plot with points on it (multi series). Now I would like to add to this plot a couple of reactangles to mark groups of points.
Is it possible ?
thanks for help
Ok it was easy:
Assuming someone has added XYSimleDataSet to the plot, one can add another dataset with other options (like drawing lines set to true).
This library is quite good that I can add lot of datasets to one plot (there is a difference between serie and dataset cause dataset can contain a lot of series).
It makes that library very flexible.
