Re: Could basemap plot in a UTM projection? - pyproj documentation

Mat:  I just updated git master to add the 'k_0' keyword when using projection='tmerc'.  This is the scaling factor along the central meridian, and is needed to exactly match the UTM definition.  I also added a utmtest.py example, that shows how to plot a UTM zone, and convert Basemap coordinates to UTM coordinates.

Jeff, thanks again for all your help with this. I tried the example and it works great. My only question would be how to get the axis labels into meters rather than degrees. Any hints? I have found the customticks.py example. Is that the best route to take?

In other news, I got a crash with run_all.py in the examples directory:

topper@silver: examples $ python run_all.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "run_all.py", line 8, in <module>
    test_files.remove('pnganim.py')
ValueError: list.remove(x): x not in list

Commenting out line 8 sorted that out.

Regards,

Mat
