[Matplotlib-users] Basemap Plotting on Floating(?) Axes

[geo_leeman <kd...@gm...>]

Hello all,

Several of us have been stumped on how to create a map with basemap that
doesn't have a rectangular bounding box.  I've attached an example of what
we are trying to create (done with GMT and not ours).  Browsing the docs I
thought it may be possible with a floating axis as in the gallery, but that
doesn't do the trick either.  Is there a way to create such a plot with
basemap?

Thanks,
J.L.

I don't think so. Not easily, with labeled meridians and parallels.
