Is it just an issue with the longitude wrapping? Some projections demand longitude must be between -180 and 180. i.e. lon[lon>=180]=lon[lon>=180]-360. You may also need to re-order your longitude and data so that longitude is monotonically increasing.</div><div class="">4) I recommend xarray when dealing w/ netcdf files, though maybe that is overkill for your problem. </div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">A minimal working example with a link to the bad data always helps. </div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">I’m sure with a bit of experimentation and use of google you can get this working.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">i.e.</div><div class=""><a href="http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13856123/setting-up-a-map-which-crosses-the-dateline-in-cartopy" class="">http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13856123/setting-up-a-map-which-crosses-the-dateline-in-cartopy</a></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Cheers, Jody</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""><br class=""></div></body></html>
