Panoply is a cross-platform application that plots geo-referenced and other
arrays from netCDF, HDF, GRIB, and other datasets.
With Panoply 5 you can:
* Create color contour plots of geo-referenced latitude-longitude,
latitude-vertical, longitude-vertical, time-latitude or time-vertical
arrays sliced from 2D or larger multidimensional variables.
* Create color contour plots of "generic" 2D arrays from 2D or larger
multidimensional variables.
* Create line plots of data from 1D or larger multidimensional variables.
* Combine two geo-referenced arrays in one plot by differencing, summing
or averaging.
* Create map plots of trajectory data based on the CF convention or similar.
* Plot lon-lat data on a global or regional map using any of over 200 map
projections or make a zonal average line plot.
* Overlay continent outlines or masks on lon-lat map plots.
* Use any of numerous color tables for the scale colorbar, or apply your own
custom ACT, CPT, or RGB color table.
* Save plots to disk GIF, JPEG, PNG or TIFF bitmap images or as PDF or
PostScript graphics files.
* Export lon-lat map plots in KMZ format.
* Export animations as MP4 video or as a collection of invididual frame
images.
* Explore remote THREDDS and OpenDAP catalogs and open datasets served
from them.
