Re: [ferret_users] Polar projections

Hi Kalyani,
There is another way to do projections than the old polar* scripts. The map projections capabilities of Ferret give you more flexibility and control over your plots. Please run this demo script to see the map-projection capabilities of Ferret.

yes? go mp_demo

Other resources for learning how to use map projections are the Users Guide and the FAQ's. In particular see this FAQ,
   http://ferret.pmel.noaa.gov/FERRET_17sep07/FAQ/custom_plots/polar_stereographic.html

And have a look through the entire set of FAQ's on map projections, listed at

Dear ferret,
I am trying to learn and plot using ploar stereographic projections for southern ocean analysis.

when I try to run go  polar_land.jnl
the following error message is coming
**TMAP ERR: non-existent or not on line
             unf_tlandr.dat
SET DATA/EZ/col=2/form=unform/var="xland,yland"/grid=gtlandr unf_tlandr.dat

I have downloaded the latest version of ferret to run on Linux mechine.

How do I get this data file
