Re: [Matplotlib-users] Is there interrest for an implementation of colour maps visualising small differences around 0

[Paul H. <pmh...@gm...>]

Pål,

Matplotlib already has a jet colormap and has moved away from using it as
the default for the very reasons listed in the first paper you site. How is
your jet colormap different? Can you provide a comparison with the existing
colormap? Does it overcome the drawbacks listed in the Sandia Nat'l Labs
paper?
