PlateCarree

class cartopy.crs.PlateCarree(central_longitude=0.0, globe=None)

LambertConformal

class cartopy.crs.LambertConformal(central_longitude=-96.0, central_latitude=39.0, false_easting=0.0, false_northing=0.0, secant_latitudes=(33, 45), globe=None, cutoff=-30)

A Lambert Conformal conic projection.

Kwargs:

• central_longitude - The central longitude. Defaults to 0.

• central_latitude - The central latitude. Defaults to 0.

• false_easting - X offset from planar origin in metres.

  Defaults to 0.

• false_northing - Y offset from planar origin in metres.

  Defaults to 0.

• secant_latitudes - The two latitudes of secant intersection.

  Defaults to (33, 45).

• globe - A cartopy.crs.Globe.

  If omitted, a default globe is created.

• cutoff - Latitude of map cutoff.

  The map extends to infinity opposite the central pole so we must cut off the map drawing before then. A value of 0 will draw half the globe. Defaults to -30.

Mercator

class cartopy.crs.Mercator(central_longitude=0.0, min_latitude=-80.0, max_latitude=84.0, globe=None)

A Mercator projection.

Kwargs:

• central_longitude - the central longitude. Defaults to 0.

• min_latitude - the maximum southerly extent of the projection.

  Defaults to -80 degrees.

• max_latitude - the maximum northerly extent of the projection.

  Defaults to 84 degrees.

• globe - A cartopy.crs.Globe.

  If omitted, a default globe is created.

  degrees. Defaults to 0.

• false_easting - X offset from the planar origin in metres.

  Defaults to 0.

• false_northing - Y offset from the planar origin in metres.

  Defaults to 0.

• scale_factor - Scale factor at the central meridian. Defaults

  to 1.

• globe - An instance of cartopy.crs.Globe. If omitted, a

  default globe is created.
