            isprintText - a string giving isprint output without headers. First of three parameters
                          must be UTH or UT1, depending on whether time scale should be relative
                          to the experiment beginning (UTH) or absolute (UT1).
                          The second must be the parameter to be plotted. Any
                          missing data should be written as "missing" or other string that
                          cannot be converted to a float. 
            
            titleStr - plot title (string) - should describe parameter being plotted
            
            xLabelStr - x label string
        
            yLabelStr - y label string

            fullFilename - full path of file containing pcolor plot to be saved.  Extension must
                           be jpeg or png, or exception thrown.

            size - size of plot to save. Must be "small", "wide", or "large". Defaults to small.
                
            useAbsoluteTime - if true, print time as YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS.  If false (default), print time as hour
                            since beginning of experiment (UTH).  If useAbsoluteTime is true, first
                            parameter in isprintText must be UT1, if false, it must be UTH.

            startTime - start plot at given time.  If useAbsoluteTime == True, then startTime must be
                    in units of seconds since 1/1/1950.  If useAbsoluteTime == False, then
                    startTime must be in units of UTH (hours since midnight UT of first day of
                    experiment). Default is None, which means start at lowest time found.

            endTime - end plot at given time.  If useAbsoluteTime == True, then endTime must be
                  in units of seconds since 1/1/1950.  If useAbsoluteTime == False, then
                  endTime must be in units of UTH (hours since midnight UT of first day of
                  experiment). Default is None, which means end at largest time found.

            maxNumPoints - maximum number of points to plot.  If not None, truncate isprintText if

        Inputs:

            isprintText - a string giving isprint output without headers. First parameter
                          must be UTH or UT1, depending on whether time scale should be relative
			  to the experiment beginning (UTH) or absolute (UT1).
			  The second must be gdalt, and third parameter to be plotted. Any
                          missing data should be written as "missing" or other string that
                          cannot be converted to a float. 
            
            titleStr - plot title (string) - should describe parameter being plotted
	    
    	    xLabelStr - x label string
    	    
    	    yLabelStr - ylabel string

            fullFilename - full path of file containing pcolor plot to be saved.  Extension must
                           be jpeg or png, or exception thrown.

            size - size of plot to save. Must be "small", "wide", or "large". Defaults to small.
            
            minColormap - minimum parameter value (defaults to lowest parameter value)

            maxColormap - maximum parameter value (defaults to highest parameter value).  However, if
                          both minColormap and maxColormap == None, autoscaling applied.
	    
    	    smoothAltitude - if True, extrapolate between existing data between altitudes to fill
    	                     in missing data; if False, leave missing
    			     
    	    insertDataGap - this parameter sets the threshold for inserting a data gap.  The time intervals
    	                    being plotted are ordered, and the time gap larger than 90% of the rest is determined.
    			    Any time interval more than insertDataGap times bigger is then considered missing
    			    data.  Defaults to five.  If None, no gaps are ever inserted.  For data with close
    			    to uniform time intervals, no gaps will be inserted.
    			    
    	    useAbsoluteTime - if true, print time as YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS.  If false (default), print time as hour
    	                      since beginning of experiment (UTH).  If useAbsoluteTime is true, first
    			      parameter in isprintText must be UT1, if false, it must be UTH.
        
            startTime - start plot at given time.  If useAbsoluteTime == True, then startTime must be
	                in units of seconds since 1/1/1950.  If useAbsoluteTime == False, then
	                startTime must be in units of UTH (hours since midnight UT of first day of
	                experiment). Default is None, which means start at lowest time found.

    	    endTime - end plot at given time.  If useAbsoluteTime == True, then endTime must be
    	              in units of seconds since 1/1/1950.  If useAbsoluteTime == False, then
    	              endTime must be in units of UTH (hours since midnight UT of first day of
    	              experiment). Default is None, which means end at largest time found.
    
    	    sortTimeFlag - if true, check that time is correctly sorted.  If false (the default),
    	                   assume time already sorted
    
    	    maxNumTimes - if not None, decimate the number of times in the isprint string to
    	                  maxNumTimes.  If None (the default), plot all times.
    
    	    maxNumAlt - if not None, reduce the number of altitudes to maxNumAlt.  If None (the default),
    	                plot all altitudes.
    
    	    truncateIsprint - if True, and both maxNumTimes and maxNumAlt not = None, then truncate
    	                       the number of isprint lines to be maxNumTimes * maxNumAlt
    
    	    colorMap - sets colormap.  It not given, defaults to matplotlib.cm.jet
    
    	    yMinimum - minumum y value.  If None (default), set by data y minimum.
    
    	    yMaximum - maximum y value.  If None (default), set by data y maximum.
    
    	    altYTitle - title of right (second) y axis.  If None (the default),
    	                 no Y axis on the right side.
    
    	    altYLabels - a list of Y labels (strings) for the right axis.  If None (the default),
    	                 no Y labels on the right axis.

            noDate - if True and useAbsoluteTime True, then times without dates printed on x axis.
            
            timezone - The offset of the local (non-DST) timezone, in seconds west of UTC 
                        (negative in most of Western Europe, positive in the US, zero in the UK).
                        
            peakAltStr - if not None (the default), plot the peak altitude with x.  Format is a
                str with each line (time in same format as data, peak altitude)

            isprintText - a string giving isprint output without headers. First parameter
                          must be the X axis value, and the second must be the Y axis value.
			  The third column is the value (intensity). Any
                          missing data should be written as "missing" or other string that
                          cannot be converted to a float.

            xGridSize - grid size for x data (for example 0.1 for 0.1 degree longitude grid)

            yGridSize - grid size for x data (for example 0.1 for 0.1 degree latitude grid)
            
            titleStr - plot title (string) - should describe parameter being plotted
	    
    	    xLabelStr - x label string
    	    
    	    yLabelStr - ylabel string

            fullFilename - full path of file containing pcolor plot to be saved.  Extension must
                           be jpeg or png, or exception thrown.

            size - size of plot to save. Must be "small", "wide", or "large". Defaults to small.

            xMinimum = minumum x value.  If None (default), uses lowest x value found.

            xMaximum = maximum x value.  If None (default), uses highest x value found.

            yMinimum = minumum y value.  If None (default), uses lowest y value found.

            yMaximum = maximum y value.  If None (default), uses highest y value found.
            
            minColormap - minimum parameter value (defaults to lowest parameter value)

            maxColormap - maximum parameter value (defaults to highest parameter value).  However, if
                          both minColormap and maxColormap == None, autoscaling applied.

            colorMap - sets colormap.  It not given, defaults to matplotlib.cm.jet

	    maxNumLine - max number of lines in isprintText before truncating.  If None, no truncation

                (for east or west el scans) or 'el_gcdist' (for all other el scans.
                For az - x is long, y is lat
                for el_* y is always alt, and x is either lat, lon, or great circle distance
            
            titleStr - plot title (string) - should describe parameter being plotted
        
            xLabelStr - x label string

                           be jpeg or png, or exception thrown.

            size - size of plot to save. Must be "small", "wide", or "large". Defaults to small.

            xMinimum = minumum x value.  If None (default), uses lowest value found.

            xMaximum = maximum x value.  If None (default), uses highest value found.

            yMinimum = minumum y value.  If None (default), uses lowest value found.

            yMaximum = maximum y value.  If None (default), uses highest value found.
            
            minColormap - minimum parameter value (defaults to lowest parameter value)

            maxColormap - maximum parameter value (defaults to highest parameter value).  However, if

        fancier wedge plots with uniform scalling.

        Inputs:

            scanType - must be 'az' or 'el'

            fullFilename - full path of file containing pcolor plot to be saved. Each image
            created will have _#.png appended, with # starting at 0

            plotParm - mnemonic of parameter to be plotted.

            size - size of plot to save. Must be "small", "wide", or "large". Defaults to small.

            xMinimum = minumum x value.  If None (default), uses lowest x value found for each scan.

            xMaximum = maximum x value.  If None (default), uses highest x value found for each scan.

            yMinimum = minumum y value.  If None (default), uses lowest y value found for each scan.

            yMaximum = maximum y value.  If None (default), uses highest y value found for each scan.
            
            minColormap - minimum parameter value (defaults to lowest parameter value)

            maxColormap - maximum parameter value (defaults to highest parameter value).  However, if
                          both minColormap and maxColormap == None, autoscaling applied.

            colorMap - sets colormap.  It not given, defaults to matplotlib.cm.jet

            maxNumLine - max number of lines in isprintText before truncating.  If None, no truncation
            
            filterStr - a filter string to pass to isprint.  Defaults to no filtering
            
            addTitle - a string with additional title.  If empty string (the default), no additional title string.
            
            includeKml - if True, create a corresponding kml file for every png file.  Same names
                    as png files, except extension = .kml.  If False, do not.
                    
            radarName - name to label radar placemark if kml generated.
            
            radarDesc - description text for radar placemark if kml generated
    
        Returns - a list of tuples, where each tuple has two items: 1. time string,
                  2. metadata string in form for scanTab.txt.  List length = number

        elevation scan or a west to east elevation scan is called clockwise, and a switch from clockwise
        to counterclockwise will create a new elevation scan. An off azimuth
        scan is not within 15 degrees of north, south, east or west.  Off azimuth scans are not combined with
        scans 180 degrees in the other direction, because the x axis is ground distance, which does not reverse

                                size = 'large')

        Inputs:

            isprintText - a string giving isprint output without headers. Any missing data should
                            be written as 'missing' or other string that cannot be converted into
                            a float.  Only one column.

            TitleStr - plot title(string) - should describe the plot being made

            xLabelStr - Label for x axis

            fullFilename - full path of file containing histogram plot to be saved. Extension must be .jpeg
                            or .png, or exception thrown

            size - size of plot to be saved. Must be 'small','wide', or 'large'. Defaults to small

            maxNumPoints - maximum number of points to be considered. Defaults to None, so all points in string shown


            numBins - number of bins to be used to store the data. More bins means closer resolution in Histogram.
                        Default is 30

            orientation - whether histogram shows horizontal or vertical. Must be written as 'horizontal' or
                            'vertical', or exception thrown--defaults to 'vertical'

            isNorm - whether histogram should be normalized or not. Default is 0, or False

            isBottom - If true, sets the lowest passed value as zero

            sdevs - number of standard deviations to take into account. When 0 is passed to it, this option is ignored and all data
                    is included in the distribution; otherwise, the range of values accepted is sdevs*(standard deviation of sample)

        Outputs:

Classes

class madHistogram

madHistogram is the class that produces Histogram plots of Madrigal Data.

Usage example::

obj = madHistogram(isprintText,
                    'Nel (log(m^-3)) - Millstone Hill - Oct. 30, 2005 - Alt. code',
                    'Hours since midnight UT Oct. 30,2003'
                    'Altitude',
                    './isprint.png'
                    size = 'large')

Inputs:

isprintText - a string giving isprint output without headers. Any missing data should
                be written as 'missing' or other string that cannot be converted into
                a float.  Only one column.

TitleStr - plot title(string) - should describe the plot being made

xLabelStr - Label for x axis

fullFilename - full path of file containing histogram plot to be saved. Extension must be .jpeg
                or .png, or exception thrown

size - size of plot to be saved. Must be 'small','wide', or 'large'. Defaults to small

maxNumPoints - maximum number of points to be considered. Defaults to None, so all points in string shown


numBins - number of bins to be used to store the data. More bins means closer resolution in Histogram.
            Default is 30

orientation - whether histogram shows horizontal or vertical. Must be written as 'horizontal' or
                'vertical', or exception thrown--defaults to 'vertical'

isNorm - whether histogram should be normalized or not. Default is 0, or False

isBottom - If true, sets the lowest passed value as zero

sdevs - number of standard deviations to take into account. When 0 is passed to it, this option is ignored and all data
        is included in the distribution; otherwise, the range of values accepted is sdevs*(standard deviation of sample)

Outputs:

A .png file is written to the fullFilename path given, resulting in a Histogram drawn by matplotlib

        Inputs:

            isprintText - a string giving isprint output without headers. First parameter
                          must be UTH or UT1, depending on whether time scale should be relative
			  to the experiment beginning (UTH) or absolute (UT1).
			  The the following must be the parameters to be plotted. Any
                          missing data should be written as "missing" or other string that
                          cannot be converted to a float.

            yParmList - a list of y parameters (strings).  Length must == num columns in isprintText - 1
            
            titleStr - plot title (string) - should describe parameter being plotted
            
            xLabelStr - x label string
            
            yLabelStr - ylabel string

            fullFilename - full path of file containing pcolor plot to be saved.  Extension must
                           be jpeg or png, or exception thrown.

            size - size of plot to save. Must be "small", "wide", or "large". Defaults to small.
			    
    	    useAbsoluteTime - if true, print time as YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS.  If false (default), print time as hour
    	                      since beginning of experiment (UTH).  If useAbsoluteTime is true, first
    			      parameter in isprintText must be UT1, if false, it must be UTH.
    
    	    startTime - start plot at given time.  If useAbsoluteTime == True, then startTime must be
    	                in units of seconds since 1/1/1950.  If useAbsoluteTime == False, then
    	                startTime must be in units of UTH (hours since midnight UT of first day of
    	                experiment). Default is None, which means start at lowest time found.
    
    	    endTime - end plot at given time.  If useAbsoluteTime == True, then endTime must be
    	              in units of seconds since 1/1/1950.  If useAbsoluteTime == False, then
    	              endTime must be in units of UTH (hours since midnight UT of first day of
    	              experiment). Default is None, which means end at largest time found.
    
    	    maxNumPoints - maximum number of points to plot.  If not None, truncate isprintText if
    	                   needed to have at most maxNumPoints lines.
    
    	    noTime - if True and useAbsoluteTime True, then dates without times printed on x axis.
    	    
    	    noDate - if True and useAbsoluteTime True, then times without dates printed on x axis.
    
    	    yMinimum - set y minimum.  If default=None, use data minimum
    
    	    yMaximum - set y maximum.  If default=None, use data maximum
    	    
    	    timezone - The offset of the local (non-DST) timezone, in seconds west of UTC 
                        (negative in most of Western Europe, positive in the US, zero in the UK).

Methods

def __init__(

self, isprintText, yParmList, titleStr, xLabelStr, yLabelStr, fullFilename, size='small', useAbsoluteTime=False, startTime=None, endTime=None, maxNumPoints=None, noTime=False, yMinimum=None, yMaximum=None, noDate=False, timezone=0)

init writes a madLineTimePlot plot to a file.

Inputs:

isprintText - a string giving isprint output without headers. First parameter
              must be UTH or UT1, depending on whether time scale should be relative
              to the experiment beginning (UTH) or absolute (UT1).
              The the following must be the parameters to be plotted. Any
              missing data should be written as "missing" or other string that
              cannot be converted to a float.

yParmList - a list of y parameters (strings).  Length must == num columns in isprintText - 1

titleStr - plot title (string) - should describe parameter being plotted

xLabelStr - x label string

yLabelStr - ylabel string

fullFilename - full path of file containing pcolor plot to be saved.  Extension must
               be jpeg or png, or exception thrown.

size - size of plot to save. Must be "small", "wide", or "large". Defaults to small.

useAbsoluteTime - if true, print time as YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS.  If false (default), print time as hour
                  since beginning of experiment (UTH).  If useAbsoluteTime is true, first
                  parameter in isprintText must be UT1, if false, it must be UTH.

startTime - start plot at given time.  If useAbsoluteTime == True, then startTime must be
            in units of seconds since 1/1/1950.  If useAbsoluteTime == False, then
            startTime must be in units of UTH (hours since midnight UT of first day of
            experiment). Default is None, which means start at lowest time found.

endTime - end plot at given time.  If useAbsoluteTime == True, then endTime must be
          in units of seconds since 1/1/1950.  If useAbsoluteTime == False, then
          endTime must be in units of UTH (hours since midnight UT of first day of
          experiment). Default is None, which means end at largest time found.

maxNumPoints - maximum number of points to plot.  If not None, truncate isprintText if
               needed to have at most maxNumPoints lines.

noTime - if True and useAbsoluteTime True, then dates without times printed on x axis.

noDate - if True and useAbsoluteTime True, then times without dates printed on x axis.

yMinimum - set y minimum.  If default=None, use data minimum

yMaximum - set y maximum.  If default=None, use data maximum

timezone - The offset of the local (non-DST) timezone, in seconds west of UTC 
            (negative in most of Western Europe, positive in the US, zero in the UK).

            noDate - if True and useAbsoluteTime True, then times without dates printed on x axis.
            
            timezone - The offset of the local (non-DST) timezone, in seconds west of UTC 
                        (negative in most of Western Europe, positive in the US, zero in the UK).

self, isprintText, titleStr, xLabelStr, yLabelStr, fullFilename, size='small', minColormap=None, maxColormap=None, smoothAltitude=True, insertDataGap=5, useAbsoluteTime=False, startTime=None, endTime=None, sortTimeFlag=False, maxNumTimes=None, maxNumAlt=None, truncateIsprint=False, colorMap=<matplotlib.colors.LinearSegmentedColormap object at 0x10afdbb90>, yMinimum=None, yMaximum=None, altYTitle=None, altYLabels=None, noTime=False, noDate=False, timezone=0, background='w', peakAltStr=None)

init writes a madPColorPlot to a file.

Inputs:

isprintText - a string giving isprint output without headers. First parameter
              must be UTH or UT1, depending on whether time scale should be relative
              to the experiment beginning (UTH) or absolute (UT1).
              The second must be gdalt, and third parameter to be plotted. Any
              missing data should be written as "missing" or other string that
              cannot be converted to a float.

titleStr - plot title (string) - should describe parameter being plotted

xLabelStr - x label string

yLabelStr - ylabel string

fullFilename - full path of file containing pcolor plot to be saved.  Extension must
               be jpeg or png, or exception thrown.

size - size of plot to save. Must be "small", "wide", or "large". Defaults to small.

minColormap - minimum parameter value (defaults to lowest parameter value)

maxColormap - maximum parameter value (defaults to highest parameter value).  However, if
              both minColormap and maxColormap == None, autoscaling applied.

smoothAltitude - if True, extrapolate between existing data between altitudes to fill
                 in missing data; if False, leave missing

insertDataGap - this parameter sets the threshold for inserting a data gap.  The time intervals
                being plotted are ordered, and the time gap larger than 90% of the rest is determined.
                Any time interval more than insertDataGap times bigger is then considered missing
                data.  Defaults to five.  If None, no gaps are ever inserted.  For data with close
                to uniform time intervals, no gaps will be inserted.

useAbsoluteTime - if true, print time as YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS.  If false (default), print time as hour
                  since beginning of experiment (UTH).  If useAbsoluteTime is true, first
                  parameter in isprintText must be UT1, if false, it must be UTH.

startTime - start plot at given time.  If useAbsoluteTime == True, then startTime must be
            in units of seconds since 1/1/1950.  If useAbsoluteTime == False, then
            startTime must be in units of UTH (hours since midnight UT of first day of
            experiment). Default is None, which means start at lowest time found.

endTime - end plot at given time.  If useAbsoluteTime == True, then endTime must be
          in units of seconds since 1/1/1950.  If useAbsoluteTime == False, then
          endTime must be in units of UTH (hours since midnight UT of first day of
          experiment). Default is None, which means end at largest time found.

sortTimeFlag - if true, check that time is correctly sorted.  If false (the default),
               assume time already sorted

maxNumTimes - if not None, decimate the number of times in the isprint string to
              maxNumTimes.  If None (the default), plot all times.

maxNumAlt - if not None, reduce the number of altitudes to maxNumAlt.  If None (the default),
            plot all altitudes.

truncateIsprint - if True, and both maxNumTimes and maxNumAlt not = None, then truncate
                   the number of isprint lines to be maxNumTimes * maxNumAlt

colorMap - sets colormap.  It not given, defaults to matplotlib.cm.jet

yMinimum - minumum y value.  If None (default), set by data y minimum.

yMaximum - maximum y value.  If None (default), set by data y maximum.

altYTitle - title of right (second) y axis.  If None (the default),
             no Y axis on the right side.

altYLabels - a list of Y labels (strings) for the right axis.  If None (the default),
             no Y labels on the right axis.

noDate - if True and useAbsoluteTime True, then times without dates printed on x axis.

timezone - The offset of the local (non-DST) timezone, in seconds west of UTC 
            (negative in most of Western Europe, positive in the US, zero in the UK).

peakAltStr - if not None (the default), plot the peak altitude with x.  Format is a
    str with each line (time in same format as data, peak altitude)

Returns: void

                          must be the X axis value, and the second must be the Y axis value.
			  The third column is the value (intensity). Any
                          missing data should be written as "missing" or other string that
                          cannot be converted to a float.

            xGridSize - grid size for x data (for example 0.1 for 0.1 degree longitude grid)

            yGridSize - grid size for x data (for example 0.1 for 0.1 degree latitude grid)
            
            titleStr - plot title (string) - should describe parameter being plotted
	    
    	    xLabelStr - x label string
    	    
    	    yLabelStr - ylabel string

                           be jpeg or png, or exception thrown.

            size - size of plot to save. Must be "small", "wide", or "large". Defaults to small.

            xMinimum = minumum x value.  If None (default), uses lowest x value found.

            xMaximum = maximum x value.  If None (default), uses highest x value found.

            yMaximum = maximum y value.  If None (default), uses highest y value found.
            
            minColormap - minimum parameter value (defaults to lowest parameter value)

            maxColormap - maximum parameter value (defaults to highest parameter value).  However, if
                          both minColormap and maxColormap == None, autoscaling applied.

            colorMap - sets colormap.  It not given, defaults to matplotlib.cm.jet

init writes a madPcolorScan to a file.

Inputs:

isprintText - a string giving isprint output without headers. First parameter
              must be the X axis value, and the second must be the Y axis value.
              The third column is the value (intensity). Any
              missing data should be written as "missing" or other string that
              cannot be converted to a float.

xGridSize - grid size for x data (for example 0.1 for 0.1 degree longitude grid)

yGridSize - grid size for x data (for example 0.1 for 0.1 degree latitude grid)

titleStr - plot title (string) - should describe parameter being plotted

xLabelStr - x label string

yLabelStr - ylabel string

fullFilename - full path of file containing pcolor plot to be saved.  Extension must
               be jpeg or png, or exception thrown.

size - size of plot to save. Must be "small", "wide", or "large". Defaults to small.

xMinimum = minumum x value.  If None (default), uses lowest x value found.

xMaximum = maximum x value.  If None (default), uses highest x value found.

yMinimum = minumum y value.  If None (default), uses lowest y value found.

yMaximum = maximum y value.  If None (default), uses highest y value found.

minColormap - minimum parameter value (defaults to lowest parameter value)

maxColormap - maximum parameter value (defaults to highest parameter value).  However, if
              both minColormap and maxColormap == None, autoscaling applied.

colorMap - sets colormap.  It not given, defaults to matplotlib.cm.jet

maxNumLine - max number of lines in isprintText before truncating.  If None, no truncation

Methods

def __init__(

self, isprintText, scanType, fullFilename, minColormap=None, maxColormap=None, instName=None, instDesc=None, instLat=None, instLon=None, instAlt=None, colorMap=None)

init writes a madPcolorWedgeKmlScan to a file.

Inputs:

isprintText - a string giving isprint output without headers. The 9 parameters
    are (gdlatr, gdlonr, galtr, range, az1, az2, el1, el2, <parameter value>).  Any
    missing data should be written as "missing" or other string that
    cannot be converted to a float. gdlatr, gdlonr, galtr are the station location

scanType - must be 'az' or 'el_lat' (for north or south el scans), 'el_lon'
    (for east or west el scans) or 'el_gcdist' (for all other el scans.
    For az - x is long, y is lat
    for el_* y is always alt, and x is either lat, lon, or great circle distance

fullFilename - full path of file containing kml file to be saved.  Extension must
               be kml, or exception thrown.

minColormap - minimum parameter value (defaults to lowest parameter value)

maxColormap - maximum parameter value (defaults to highest parameter value).  However, if
              both minColormap and maxColormap == None, autoscaling applied.


instName, instDesc, instLat, instLon, instAlt - used to create a placemark for the radar.  If
    instLat or instLon missing, no placemark added.

colorMap - A matplotlib colormap to use to create colors.  If None, then blue minimum and red maximum

Returns: void

Methods

def __init__(

self, isprintText, scanType, titleStr, xLabelStr, yLabelStr, fullFilename, size='small', xMinimum=None, xMaximum=None, yMinimum=None, yMaximum=None, minColormap=None, maxColormap=None, colorMap=<matplotlib.colors.LinearSegmentedColormap object at 0x10afdbb90>)

init writes a madPcolorWedgeScan to a file.

Inputs:

isprintText - a string giving isprint output without headers. The 9 parameters
    are (gdlatr, gdlonr, galtr, range, az1, az2, el1, el2, <parameter value>).  Any
    missing data should be written as "missing" or other string that
    cannot be converted to a float. gdlatr, gdlonr, galtr are the station location

scanType - must be 'az' or 'el_lat' (for north or south el scans), 'el_lon'
    (for east or west el scans) or 'el_gcdist' (for all other el scans.
    For az - x is long, y is lat
    for el_* y is always alt, and x is either lat, lon, or great circle distance

titleStr - plot title (string) - should describe parameter being plotted

xLabelStr - x label string

yLabelStr - ylabel string

fullFilename - full path of file containing pcolor plot to be saved.  Extension must
               be jpeg or png, or exception thrown.

size - size of plot to save. Must be "small", "wide", or "large". Defaults to small.

xMinimum = minumum x value.  If None (default), uses lowest value found.

xMaximum = maximum x value.  If None (default), uses highest value found.

yMinimum = minumum y value.  If None (default), uses lowest value found.

yMaximum = maximum y value.  If None (default), uses highest value found.

minColormap - minimum parameter value (defaults to lowest parameter value)

maxColormap - maximum parameter value (defaults to highest parameter value).  However, if
              both minColormap and maxColormap == None, autoscaling applied.

colorMap - sets colormap.  It not given, defaults to matplotlib.cm.jet

Returns: void

Affects: Writes fullFilename to disk

init writes a madScatter plot to a file.

Inputs:

isprintText - a string giving isprint output without headers. First parameter
              must be UTH or UT1, depending on whether time scale should be relative
              to the experiment beginning (UTH) or absolute (UT1).
              The second must be the parameter to be plotted. Any
              missing data should be written as "missing" or other string that
              cannot be converted to a float.

titleStr - plot title (string) - should describe parameter being plotted

xLabelStr - x label string

    yLabelStr - ylabel string

fullFilename - full path of file containing pcolor plot to be saved.  Extension must
               be jpeg or png, or exception thrown.

size - size of plot to save. Must be "small", "wide", or "large". Defaults to small.

useAbsoluteTime - if true, print time as YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS.  If false (default), print time as hour
                  since beginning of experiment (UTH).  If useAbsoluteTime is true, first
                  parameter in isprintText must be UT1, if false, it must be UTH.

startTime - start plot at given time.  If useAbsoluteTime == True, then startTime must be
            in units of seconds since 1/1/1950.  If useAbsoluteTime == False, then
            startTime must be in units of UTH (hours since midnight UT of first day of
            experiment). Default is None, which means start at lowest time found.

endTime - end plot at given time.  If useAbsoluteTime == True, then endTime must be
          in units of seconds since 1/1/1950.  If useAbsoluteTime == False, then
          endTime must be in units of UTH (hours since midnight UT of first day of
          experiment). Default is None, which means end at largest time found.

maxNumPoints - maximum number of points to plot.  If not None, truncate isprintText if
               needed to have at most maxNumPoints lines.

noTime - if True and useAbsoluteTime True, then dates without times printed on x axis.

noDate - if True and useAbsoluteTime True, then times without dates printed on x axis.

yMinimum - set y minimum.  If default=None, use data minimum

yMaximum - set y maximum.  If default=None, use data maximum

timezone - The offset of the local (non-DST) timezone, in seconds west of UTC 
            (negative in most of Western Europe, positive in the US, zero in the UK).

Returns: void

Methods

def __init__(

self, inputText, titleStr, xLabelStr, yLabelStr, fullFilename, size='small', lowBound=None, highBound=None, maxNumPoints=None, yLegend=None)

Inputs:

inputText - string of values to be plotted. The formatting is as
            follows:

            xval yval
            xval yval
            xval yval

titleStr - title of the Plot

xLabelStr - label for the x axis

yLabelStr - label for the y axis

fullFilename - full file path to save the resulting picture to

size - size of plot to be saved. Must be 'small','wide', or 'large'.
    defaults to 'small'.

lowBound - lower bound on the x-axis value. If no bound is specified,
        the lowest value found in inputText will be used.

highBound - upper bound on the x-axis value. If no bound is specified,
        the highest value found in inputText will be used.

maxNumPoints - maximum number of points to be plotted.

Outputs: None

Affects: Creates a scatter plot using matplotlib and writes that to the file designated by the variable 'fullFilename'

Exceptions: ValueError if lowBound or highBound cannot be converted to a float value

        Inputs:

            isprintText - a string giving isprint output without headers. First of three parameters
                          must be UTH or UT1, depending on whether time scale should be relative
                          to the experiment beginning (UTH) or absolute (UT1).
                          The second must be the parameter to be plotted. Any
                          missing data should be written as "missing" or other string that
                          cannot be converted to a float. 
            
            titleStr - plot title (string) - should describe parameter being plotted
            
            xLabelStr - x label string
        
            yLabelStr - y label string

            fullFilename - full path of file containing pcolor plot to be saved.  Extension must
                           be jpeg or png, or exception thrown.

            size - size of plot to save. Must be "small", "wide", or "large". Defaults to small.
                
            useAbsoluteTime - if true, print time as YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS.  If false (default), print time as hour
                            since beginning of experiment (UTH).  If useAbsoluteTime is true, first
                            parameter in isprintText must be UT1, if false, it must be UTH.

            startTime - start plot at given time.  If useAbsoluteTime == True, then startTime must be
                    in units of seconds since 1/1/1950.  If useAbsoluteTime == False, then
                    startTime must be in units of UTH (hours since midnight UT of first day of
                    experiment). Default is None, which means start at lowest time found.

            endTime - end plot at given time.  If useAbsoluteTime == True, then endTime must be
                  in units of seconds since 1/1/1950.  If useAbsoluteTime == False, then
                  endTime must be in units of UTH (hours since midnight UT of first day of
                  experiment). Default is None, which means end at largest time found.

            maxNumPoints - maximum number of points to plot.  If not None, truncate isprintText if
                       needed to have at most maxNumPoints lines.
            
            noDate - if True and useAbsoluteTime True, then times without dates printed on x axis.
    
            yMinimum - set y minimum.  If default=None, use data minimum
    
            yMaximum - set y maximum.  If default=None, use data maximum
            
            timezone - The offset of the local (non-DST) timezone, in seconds west of UTC 
                        (negative in most of Western Europe, positive in the US, zero in the UK).

Methods

def __init__(

self, isprintText, titleStr, xLabelStr, yLabelStr, fullFilename, size='small', useAbsoluteTime=False, startTime=None, endTime=None, maxNumPoints=None, noTime=False, noDate=False, yMinimum=None, yMaximum=None, timezone=0)

init writes a madScatter plot to a file.

Inputs:

isprintText - a string giving isprint output without headers. First of three parameters
              must be UTH or UT1, depending on whether time scale should be relative
              to the experiment beginning (UTH) or absolute (UT1).
              The second must be the parameter to be plotted. Any
              missing data should be written as "missing" or other string that
              cannot be converted to a float.

titleStr - plot title (string) - should describe parameter being plotted

xLabelStr - x label string

yLabelStr - y label string

fullFilename - full path of file containing pcolor plot to be saved.  Extension must
               be jpeg or png, or exception thrown.

size - size of plot to save. Must be "small", "wide", or "large". Defaults to small.

useAbsoluteTime - if true, print time as YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS.  If false (default), print time as hour
                since beginning of experiment (UTH).  If useAbsoluteTime is true, first
                parameter in isprintText must be UT1, if false, it must be UTH.

startTime - start plot at given time.  If useAbsoluteTime == True, then startTime must be
        in units of seconds since 1/1/1950.  If useAbsoluteTime == False, then
        startTime must be in units of UTH (hours since midnight UT of first day of
        experiment). Default is None, which means start at lowest time found.

endTime - end plot at given time.  If useAbsoluteTime == True, then endTime must be
      in units of seconds since 1/1/1950.  If useAbsoluteTime == False, then
      endTime must be in units of UTH (hours since midnight UT of first day of
      experiment). Default is None, which means end at largest time found.

maxNumPoints - maximum number of points to plot.  If not None, truncate isprintText if
           needed to have at most maxNumPoints lines.

noDate - if True and useAbsoluteTime True, then times without dates printed on x axis.

yMinimum - set y minimum.  If default=None, use data minimum

yMaximum - set y maximum.  If default=None, use data maximum

timezone - The offset of the local (non-DST) timezone, in seconds west of UTC 
            (negative in most of Western Europe, positive in the US, zero in the UK).

Returns: void

Affects: None

Now removes all lines with missing

        Inputs:

            scanType - must be 'az' or 'el'

            fullFilename - full path of file containing pcolor plot to be saved. Each image
            created will have _#.png appended, with # starting at 0

            plotParm - mnemonic of parameter to be plotted.

            size - size of plot to save. Must be "small", "wide", or "large". Defaults to small.

            xMinimum = minumum x value.  If None (default), uses lowest x value found for each scan.

            xMaximum = maximum x value.  If None (default), uses highest x value found for each scan.

            yMinimum = minumum y value.  If None (default), uses lowest y value found for each scan.

            yMaximum = maximum y value.  If None (default), uses highest y value found for each scan.
            
            minColormap - minimum parameter value (defaults to lowest parameter value)

            maxColormap - maximum parameter value (defaults to highest parameter value).  However, if
                          both minColormap and maxColormap == None, autoscaling applied.

            colorMap - sets colormap.  It not given, defaults to matplotlib.cm.jet

            maxNumLine - max number of lines in isprintText before truncating.  If None, no truncation
            
            filterStr - a filter string to pass to isprint.  Defaults to no filtering
            
            addTitle - a string with additional title.  If empty string (the default), no additional title string.
            
            includeKml - if True, create a corresponding kml file for every png file.  Same names
                    as png files, except extension = .kml.  If False, do not.
                    
            radarName - name to label radar placemark if kml generated.
            
            radarDesc - description text for radar placemark if kml generated

def createScanInfoList(

self, isprintStr)

createScanInfoList creates a list of tuples, which each tuple representing a single scan, and values of:

(isprintString, startUT, startAz, startEl, endUT, endAz, endEl, type, minGdlat, maxGdlat,minGlon, maxGdlon,minGdalt, maxGdalt, minGcdist, maxGcdist). Isprint string has values (x,y,plotParm), where for az scan x=lon, y=lat, and for el scan y=alt, x=lat if starting az within 15 degrees of north or south, x=lon if starting az within 15 degrees of east or west, of x=gcdist if other az. Type is Gdlat or Glon or Gcdist for el scans, None for az scans.

Input isprint string has parameters ut1,scntyp,cycn,,gdalt,gdlat,glon,azm,elm,gcdist

Azimuth scans are split whenever direction or elevation changes. For elevation scans, there will be zero or one north-south scans, zero or one east-west scans, and zero or more off azimuth scans. An off azimuth scan is not within 15 degrees of north, south, east or west. Off azimuth scans are not combined with scans 180 degrees in the other direction, because the x axis is ground distance, which does not reverse sign.

def createWedgeScanInfoList(

createWedgeScanInfoList creates a list of tuples, which each tuple representing a single scan, and values of:

(isprintString, startUT, startAz, startEl, endUT, endAz, endEl, type, minGdlat, maxGdlat,minGlon, maxGdlon,minGdalt, maxGdalt, minGcdist, maxGcdist).

Input isprint string has parameters ut1,scntyp,cycn,,gdalt,gdlat,glon,azm,elm,gcdist, gdlatr,gdlonr,galtr,range,az1,az2,el1,el2

Azimuth scans are split whenever direction or elevation changes. For elevation scans, there will be zero or more north-south scans, zero or more east-west scans, and zero or more off azimuth scans. A south to north elevation scan or a west to east elevation scan is called clockwise, and a switch from clockwise to counterclockwise will create a new elevation scan. An off azimuth scan is not within 15 degrees of north, south, east or west. Off azimuth scans are not combined with scans 180 degrees in the other direction, because the x axis is ground distance, which does not reverse sign.

plotAllScans creates a series of az or el scans.

Inputs:

scanType - must be 'az' or 'el'

fullFilename - full path of file containing pcolor plot to be saved. Each image
created will have _#.png appended, with # starting at 0

plotParm - mnemonic of parameter to be plotted.

size - size of plot to save. Must be "small", "wide", or "large". Defaults to small.

xMinimum = minumum x value.  If None (default), uses lowest x value found for each scan.

xMaximum = maximum x value.  If None (default), uses highest x value found for each scan.

yMinimum = minumum y value.  If None (default), uses lowest y value found for each scan.

yMaximum = maximum y value.  If None (default), uses highest y value found for each scan.

minColormap - minimum parameter value (defaults to lowest parameter value)

maxColormap - maximum parameter value (defaults to highest parameter value).  However, if
              both minColormap and maxColormap == None, autoscaling applied.

colorMap - sets colormap.  It not given, defaults to matplotlib.cm.jet

maxNumLine - max number of lines in isprintText before truncating.  If None, no truncation

filterStr - a filter string to pass to isprint.  Defaults to no filtering

Returns - a list of tuples, where each tuple has two items: 1. time string, 2. metadata string in form for scanTab.txt. List length = number of plots created

plotAllWedgeScans creates a series of az or el scans. Similar to plotAllScans, except produces fancier wedge plots with uniform scalling.

Inputs:

scanType - must be 'az' or 'el'

fullFilename - full path of file containing pcolor plot to be saved. Each image
created will have _#.png appended, with # starting at 0

plotParm - mnemonic of parameter to be plotted.

size - size of plot to save. Must be "small", "wide", or "large". Defaults to small.

xMinimum = minumum x value.  If None (default), uses lowest x value found for each scan.

xMaximum = maximum x value.  If None (default), uses highest x value found for each scan.

yMinimum = minumum y value.  If None (default), uses lowest y value found for each scan.

yMaximum = maximum y value.  If None (default), uses highest y value found for each scan.

maxColormap - maximum parameter value (defaults to highest parameter value).  However, if
              both minColormap and maxColormap == None, autoscaling applied.

colorMap - sets colormap.  It not given, defaults to matplotlib.cm.jet

maxNumLine - max number of lines in isprintText before truncating.  If None, no truncation

filterStr - a filter string to pass to isprint.  Defaults to no filtering

addTitle - a string with additional title.  If empty string (the default), no additional title string.

includeKml - if True, create a corresponding kml file for every png file.  Same names
        as png files, except extension = .kml.  If False, do not.

radarName - name to label radar placemark if kml generated.

radarDesc - description text for radar placemark if kml generated

Returns - a list of tuples, where each tuple has two items: 1. time string, 2. metadata string in form for scanTab.txt. List length = number of plots created

        yMaximum = maximum y value.  If None (default), uses highest y value found for each scan.
        
        minColormap - minimum parameter value (defaults to lowest parameter value)
        maxColormap - maximum parameter value (defaults to highest parameter value).  However, if
                      both minColormap and maxColormap == None, autoscaling applied.
        colorMap - sets colormap.  It not given, defaults to matplotlib.cm.jet
        maxNumLine - max number of lines in isprintText before truncating.  If None, no truncation
        
        filterStr - a filter string to pass to isprint.  Defaults to no filtering
        
        addTitle - a string with additional title.  If empty string (the default), no additional title string.
        
        includeKml - if True, create a corresponding kml file for every png file.  Same names
                as png files, except extension = .kml.  If False, do not.
                
        radarName - name to label radar placemark if kml generated.
        
        radarDesc - description text for radar placemark if kml generated

    Returns - a list of tuples, where each tuple has two items: 1. time string,
              2. metadata string in form for scanTab.txt.  List length = number
