Diagramma SkewT-logP: utilizzo di trasformazioni e proiezioni personalizzate #

Questo funge da esercizio intensivo delle trasformazioni di Matplotlib e dell'API di proiezione personalizzata. Questo esempio produce un cosiddetto diagramma SkewT-logP, che è un grafico comune in meteorologia per la visualizzazione di profili verticali di temperatura. Per quanto riguarda Matplotlib, la complessità deriva dall'avere assi X e Y non ortogonali. Questo viene gestito includendo un componente di inclinazione alle trasformazioni di base degli assi. Un'ulteriore complessità deriva dalla gestione del fatto che gli assi X superiore e inferiore hanno intervalli di dati diversi, il che richiede una serie di classi personalizzate per zecche, spine e assi per gestirlo.
