Example template#

Title#

One-line summary of what the example shows.

What it demonstrates#

  • List the main features (e.g., “Skew-T with winds”, “Integer field with discrete colormap”).

Script#

Place a .py file in docs/examples/ with a header like this:

"""
Skew-T with winds
=================
This example shows how to plot a Skew-T with temperature, dewpoint, and wind barbs.
It uses EMCPy SkewT class and Cartopy for background features.
"""

Then include a concise but complete script (ideally <150 lines). Prefer synthetic data unless you need a small real dataset.#

Data policy#

  • Use synthetic arrays generated in code whenever possible.

  • If using real data, keep files <5 MB and store them in docs/_static/data/.

  • Always provide attribution for external datasets.

Tip

When in doubt, look at an existing example in docs/examples/ and mirror its structure.
