Documents
----------
The documentation will be built on readthedocs and is available at the [pycwr documents website](https://pycwr.readthedocs.io/en/latest/).
Install pycwr Library
----------
### The easiest route to installing pycwr is through pip and conda:
if you haven't install cartopy, for all platforms installing cartopy can be done with:
```
conda install -c conda-forge cartopy
```
and you can install pycwr with pip:
```
pip install pycwr
```
### Also, you can install from source code:
```
git clone https://github.com/YvZheng/pycwr.git
cd pycwr
python setup.py install
```
Read Radar Basedata to PRD (Polarimetry Radar Data) class or Py-ART Radar class
----------
```
from pycwr.io import read_auto
file = r"./Z_RADR_I_Z9898_20190828192401_O_DOR_SAD_CAP_FMT.bin.bz2"
PRD = read_auto(file)
PyartRadar = PRD.ToPyartRadar()
```
The data structure of the PRD is as follows:
Plotting PPI with map
----------
```
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import cartopy.crs as ccrs
from pycwr.draw.RadarPlot import Graph, GraphMap
ax = plt.axes(projection=ccrs.PlateCarree())
graph = GraphMap(PRD, ccrs.PlateCarree())
graph.plot_ppi_map(ax, 0, "dBZ", cmap="pyart_NWSRef")
ax.set_title("example of PPI with map", fontsize=16)
plt.show()
```
Plotting PPI
----------
```
fig, ax = plt.subplots()
graph = Graph(PRD)
graph.plot_ppi(ax, 0, "dBZ", cmap="pyart_NWSRef")
graph.add_rings(ax, [0, 50, 100, 150, 200, 250, 300])
ax.set_title("example of PPI", fontsize=16)
ax.set_xlabel("Distance From Radar In East (km)", fontsize=14)
ax.set_ylabel("Distance From Radar In North (km)", fontsize=14)
```
Plotting VCS with lat lon position
----------
```
fig, ax = plt.subplots()
graph = GraphMap(PRD, ccrs.PlateCarree())
graph.plot_vcs_map(ax, (120.8, 27.8), (122.9, 26.8), "dBZ", cmap="pyart_NWSRef")
ax.set_ylim([0,15])
ax.set_ylabel("Height (km)", fontsize=14)
ax.set_xlabel("Latitude, Longitude", fontsize=14)
ax.set_title("VCS exmaple", fontsize=16)
plt.show()
```
Plotting VCS with x y position
----------
```
fig, ax = plt.subplots()
graph = Graph(PRD)
graph.plot_vcs(ax, (0,0), (150, 0), "dBZ", cmap="pyart_NWSRef")
ax.set_ylim([0,15])
ax.set_ylabel("Height (km)", fontsize=14)
ax.set_xlabel("Distance From Section Start (Uints:km)", fontsize=14)
ax.set_title("VCS exmaple", fontsize=16)
plt.show()
```
Launch Graphical interface to show Radar Data
----------
```
python scripts/LaunchGUI.py
```
The main window opens as shown below:
