argopy.fetchers.ArgoIndexFetcher.plot

ArgoIndexFetcher.plot(ptype: str = 'trajectory', **kwargs)

Create custom plots from this fetcher index.

This is basically shortcuts to some plotting submodules:

• trajectory calls argopy.plot.plot_trajectory with index DataFrame

• profiler or dac calls argopy.plot.bar_plot with index DataFrame

• qc_altimetry calls argopy.plot.open_sat_altim_report with index unique list of wmo

Parameters:

• ptype (str, default: 'trajectory') – Plot type, one of the following: trajectory, profiler, dac or qc_altimetry.

• kwargs – Other arguments passed to the plotting submodule.

Returns:

• fig (matplotlib.figure.Figure)

• ax (matplotlib.axes.Axes)

Warning

Calling this method will automatically trigger a call to the argopy.IndexFetcher.load method.
