re-build map_plot as plot_map, combing updates from branch 74 #78

Closed tsherwen closed 4 years ago

tsherwen commented 7 years ago

The 74, bendev, dev.red branches were combined into a single dev branch dev.main. Conflicts were resolved for map_plot whilst retaining back compatibility, however new updates to map_plot could not be included. A plot_map function has therefore been created. Updates to ticks/colorbars/default/general tidiness plotting should be applied to this and eventually map_plot will be retired.

tsherwen commented 4 years ago

map_plot/plot_map are now redundant as cartopy is used instead of basemap for plotting. This still wrappers the matplotlib library.

basemap plotting functions will be moved to a redundant folder in AC_tools to maintain back-compatibility for now.
