Hi,

Is there a way to make the below as a hovemuler diagram which I tired but could not succeed  

import pandas as pd
 
dates = pd.date_range('20130101',periods=30)
df=pd.DataFrame(np.random.randn(30,5),index=dates)

Obviously, basemap is not needed as you are not drawing a longitude/latitude plot but a longitude/time or latitude/time one.

Thank Daswson  & Sterling,
                   Got it, you meant the data should not have date and longitude against each grid point instead should have only 2 vectors rather than grid.
with best regards,
Sudheer

I meant the coordinates, so one representing latitude or longitude and one
representing time (filled with datetime objects), should be 1d. This only
applies if your coordinate actually contains datetime objects, if not then
coordinates can be 2d as the documentation says.

Sudheer,

Although the documentation is not consistent with the following (as of v1.0.1), the X and Y arguments to contourf can be 1D arrays.  Consider:
>>> from pylab import *
>>> x=range(100)
>>> y=range(20)
>>> xx,yy=meshgrid(x,y)
>>> z=xx**2+yy**2
>>> contourf(x,y,z)
<matplotlib.contour.QuadContourSet instance at 0x114e5fa28>

From memory you might also need to tell matplotlib that the y coordinate is date/time (I think that is a mpl bug that ajdawson has recently addressed). Obviously, basemap is not needed as you are not drawing a longitude/latitude plot but a longitude/time or latitude/time one.

Hi,

I did not understand 1d mentioned by you? for a diagram like this 2D is must as it need longitude /latitude and also time
with best regards,
Sudheer

Thank you Phil,
                       Which repository I need to add to source list which allow me to install iris with apt-get install python-iris. I do not have it in my default lists.
with best regards,
Sudheer
