Wind barb plots
in [Matlab]
|
From: Travis Knepp on 7 Jul 2010 11:50 I'm trying to plot wind data (I have altitude, time, and wind vector (u and v) data) and would like to plot the data as wind barbs (e.g. see http://ww2010.atmos.uiuc.edu/%28Gh%29/guides/maps/sfcobs/wnd.rxml ). I don't think MatLab can do it. Ok, I know it can be done...I just can't figure it out.

I don't think there's any functions in any of the toolboxes from The MathWorks that can do that sort of plotting, but a quick search found (among other items) a posting on Google Code: http://code.google.com/p/windbarb/ I haven't used it but it might work for you. There was also a document from the NOAA: http://www.esrl.noaa.gov/psd/psd3/cruises/radar_readme.txt that refers to wind barb plots available in "MATLAB fig" format -- perhaps you can contact the maintainer of the parent page of that readme file: http://www.esrl.noaa.gov/psd/psd3/cruises/ and see if he can provide you with the tool used to create those wind barb plots. -- Steve Lord slord(a)mathworks.com comp.soft-sys.matlab (CSSM) FAQ: http://matlabwiki.mathworks.com/MATLAB_FAQ To contact Technical Support use the Contact Us link on http://www.mathworks.com
