landlab.plot.event_handler module#

Functions to interact with figures that plot Landlab grid data.

query_grid_on_button_press(event, grid)[source]#

Print and returns node information using an imshow plot.

This function is triggered when a mouse button is pressed on the matplotlib figure connected by event.

This function only works with raster model grids.

Parameters:

grid (RasterModelGrid) – Grid containing the attributes to print.

Returns:

Dictionary containing grid query results.

Return type:

query_results

Plot a river network and parcels on the river network. Intended to display the results of the NetworkSedimentTransporter component.

The river network (an instance of NetworkModelGrid) is plotted either as straight links between grid nodes, or (if the network was created using a shapefile to set network topology) as sinuous lines representing the actual link geometry.

The parcels (an instance of DataRecord) are represented as dot markers along the links, with the marker location set by parcel attribute location_at_link. The default is to plot the parcel locations at the last timestep in DataRecord, though any time index may be specified.

Use of this plotting tool is described in detail in a landlab tutorial.

Parameters:

grid (NetworkModelGrid) – Instance of NetworkModelGrid.
parcels (DataRecord) – Instance of Landlab DataRecord, with the same attribute requirements as NetworkSedimentTransporter.
parcel_time_index (int, time index of parcels DataRecord) – Parcel time index to plot. Default is last timestep in parcels DataRecord.
map_buffer (0.1) – Increase the plot extent by at least this much (default 0.1). Note, b/c of axis equal, may be more.

landlab.plot.video_out module#

Create mp4 animation of Landlab output.

This component allows creation of mp4 animations of output from Landlab. It does so by stitching together output from the conventional Landlab static plotting routines from plot/imshow.py.

It is compatible with all Landlab grids, though cannot handle an evolving grid as yet.

Initialize the video object vid at the start of your code, then simply call vid.add_frame(grid, data) each time you want to add a frame. At the end of the model run, call vid.produce_video().

CAUTION: This component may prove very memory-intensive. It is recommended that the total number of frames included in the output multiplied by the number of pixels (nodes) in the image not exceed XXXXXXXXX.

Due to some issues with codecs in matplotlib, at the moment on .gif output movies are recommended. If this irritates you, you can modify your own PYTHONPATH to allow .mp4 compilation (try a google search for the warning raised by this method for some hints). These (known) issues are apparently likely to resolve themselves in a future release of matplotlib.

output (None, string, or bool) – If None (or False), the image is sent to the imaging buffer to await an explicit call to show() or savefig() from outside this function. If a string, the string should be the path to a save location, and the filename (with file extension). The function will then call plt.savefig([string]) itself. If True, the function will call plt.show() itself once plotting is complete.

imshow_grid_at_node(grid, values, **kwds)[source]#

values can be a field name, a regular array, or a masked array. If a masked array is provided, masked entries will be treated as if they were Landlab BC_NODE_IS_CLOSED. Used together with the color_at_closed=None keyword (i.e., “transparent”), this can allow for construction of overlay layers in a figure (e.g., only defining values in a river network, and overlaying it on another landscape).

Use matplotlib functions like xlim, ylim to modify your plot after calling imshow_grid, as desired.

Node coordinates are printed when a mouse button is pressed on a cell in the plot.

This function happily works with both regular and irregular grids.

Parameters:

grid (ModelGrid) – Grid containing the field to plot, or describing the geometry of the provided array.
values (array_like, masked_array, or str) – Node values, or a field name as a string from which to draw the data.

limits (tuple of float) – Minimum and maximum of the colorbar.
vmin (floats) – Alternatives to limits.

show_elements (bool) – If True, and grid is a Voronoi, the faces will be plotted in black along with just the colour of the cell, defining the cell outlines (defaults False).
output (None, string, or bool) – If None (or False), the image is sent to the imaging buffer to await an explicit call to show() or savefig() from outside this function. If a string, the string should be the path to a save location, and the filename (with file extension). The function will then call plt.savefig([string]) itself. If True, the function will call plt.show() itself once plotting is complete.

imshowhs_grid(grid, values, **kwds)[source]#

Prepare a map view of data over all nodes in the grid using a hillshade topography map in the background.

Data are plotted as cells shaded with the value at the node at its center. Outer edges of perimeter cells are extrapolated. Closed elements are colored uniformly (with the color being controlled by the color_for_closed keyword); other open boundary nodes get their actual values.

values can be a field name, a regular array, or a masked array. If a masked array is provided, masked entries are treated as if they were landlab CLOSED nodes. If closed nodes are also set to be transparent (i.e. color_for_closed=None), this can allow for the construction of overlying layers in a figure (e.g., only defining values in a river network, and then overlaying it on another landscape).

Use matplotlib functions like xlim, ylim to modify your plot after calling imshowhs_grid, as desired.

Node coordinates are printed when a mouse button is pressed on a cell in the plot.

plot_graph(graph, at='node,link,patch', with_id=True, axes=None)[source]#

Plot elements of a graph.

Parameters:

graph (graph-like) – A landlab graph-like object.
at (str or iterable of str) – Comma-separated list of elements to plot.
with_id (str, iterable of str or bool) – Indicate which elements should be plotted with their corresponding id. Either a comma-separated list of grid elements or True to include ids for all elements of False for no elements.
axes (, optional) – Add the plot to an existing matplotlib Axes, otherwise, create a new one.

Returns:

The Axes containing the plot.

Return type:

Axes

Plot a stack of sediment layers as a cross section.

Create a plot of the elevation sediment layers, including surfaces for sea level and bedrock.

Parameters:

elevation_at_layer (array-like of shape (n_layers, n_stacks)) – Elevation to each layer along the profile. Layers are provided row-by-row, with the bottom-most layer being the first row.
x (array-like, optional) – Distance to each stack along the cross-section. If not provided, stack number will be used.
sea_level (float, optional) – Elevation of sea level.
color_water (tuple of float, optional) – Tuple of (red, green, blue) values for water.
color_bedrock (tuple of float, optional) – Tuple of (red, green, blue) values for bedrock.
color_layer (string, optional) – Colormap to use to color in the layers.
layer_line_width (float, optional) – Width of line used to plot layer surfaces.
layer_line_color (string, optional) – Color of the line used to plot layer surfaces.
title (string, optional) – Text to be used for the graph’s title. The default is to not include a title.
x_label (string, optional) – Text to be used for the x (horizontal) axis label.
y_label (string, optional) – Text to be used for the y (vertical) axis label.
legend_location (string, optional) – Where to put the legend.

Plot a river network and parcels on the river network. Intended to display the results of the NetworkSedimentTransporter component.

Use of this plotting tool is described in detail in a landlab tutorial.

Parameters:

grid (NetworkModelGrid) – Instance of NetworkModelGrid.
parcels (DataRecord) – Instance of Landlab DataRecord, with the same attribute requirements as NetworkSedimentTransporter.
parcel_time_index (int, time index of parcels DataRecord) – Parcel time index to plot. Default is last timestep in parcels DataRecord.
map_buffer (0.1) – Increase the plot extent by at least this much (default 0.1). Note, b/c of axis equal, may be more.
parcel_filter (boolean array of shape (number_of_parcels, )) – Filter to plot only a selection of the parcels.
