EOmaps v4.3

A new release that brings some nice updates and an awesome new Layout-Editor!

🌦️ Changes

• 🍃 utility-widgets now auto-update themselves if new layers are added to the map!
  • to show only a subset of the available layers, use m.util.layer_selector(layers=["layer1", ...])
• 🍃 coastlines are no longer added by default when creating new layers from files (e.g. NetCDF, GeoTIFF etc.)
  • (use coastlines=True or explicitly call m.add_feature.preset.coastline() to add coastlines!)
• 🍃 m.add_gdf now allows using a path to a file that can be read with geopandas.read_file instead of providing the geopandas.GeoDataFrame directly
• ❗ keyword-arguments for m.new_inset_map have changed!
  • edgecolor and linewidth are depreciated and will be removed in next major versions!
  • to set the properties of the boundary-polygon, use m.new_inset_map(boundary=dict(fc="r", lw=1) instead
• ❗ m.cb.dynamic has been removed

🌳 New

⭐ New accessor for classification schemes

The new classification-schemes accessor 🌟 m.set_classify provides autocompletion and proper docstrings!
(you can use it just as you would use m.set_classify_specs)

Just select the scheme you want to use and call it with the relevant parameters:

m = Maps()
m.set_data(...)
m.set_classify.Quantiles(k=5)
m.plot_map(...)

# alternative (old) way to set the classification:   
# m.set_classify_specs(scheme="Quantiles", k=5)

⭐ There's a new 🏗️ Layout Editor to quickly re-arrange the subplots of a figure!

The Layout Editor can be used to quickly re-arrange the position of all axes in the figure.
(works for maps, colorbars, inset-maps, ordinary matplotlib plots etc.)

• You can save and re-apply a layout with:
  • 🌟m.get_layout(): get the current layout (or dump the layout as a json-file)
  • 🌟m.apply_layout(): apply a given layout (or load and apply the layout from a json-file)
  • 🌟m.edit_layout(filepath=...): enter LayoutEditor and (optionally) save layout as a json-file on exit

To quickly enter/exit Layout Editor, simply use the assigned keyboard-shortcuts:

• press ALT + L to enter the LayoutEditor mode
• press ALT + L again or escape to exit the LayoutEditor

Have a look at the new section in the 📖 documentation for more details!

🔨 Fixes

• fix recognizing the parent layer when initializing utility-widgets from the parent Maps object
• fix layer-selectors should indicate no active layer if the active layer is not part of the widget
• updates for inset-maps
• add fix for reprojection issues with certain projections
• fix reprojection sometimes masks certain shapes
