[Matplotlib-users] Map projections and pyplot.plot

[Bruce F. <br...@cl...>]

I have a basemap figure where data is placed atop, which can be in any
number of differing projections.  However, when I plot a line over it using
pyplot.plot, the line doesn't show unless I'm using
the cylindrical equidistant projection.

>From what I gather this is a limitation of the plot command.  Can anyone
confirm this?  Is this a limitation in that the 'cyl' projection is assumed
by pyplot.plot?

I saw a post that mentioned that a projection kwarg would not be added to
the plot command.  Does this mean that the plot command will realize the
projection of the gca basemap?
