Introducing cartotools with Airbus Christmas tree
Before Christmas leave, just a small snippet of code for plotting the trajectory of Airbus flight AIB232E
. The data has been made available by the OpenSky Network. It is plotted using my new cartotools
library (built on top of Cartopy).
You may download the data here.
%matplotlib inline
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import pandas as pd
from cartotools.crs import PlateCarree
from cartotools.img_tiles import BKG_Topoplus
tiles = BKG_Topoplus()
fig = plt.figure(figsize=(15, 10), dpi=150)
ax = fig.add_subplot(111, projection=tiles.crs)
ax.add_image(tiles, 7, alpha=.7)
ax.set_extent((5.5, 15.23, 47.215, 55.03))
tree = pd.read_csv("airbus_tree.csv", index_col=0)
ax.plot(tree.lon, tree.lat, color='#aa3a3a', transform=PlateCarree())
