Support plotting of TDF/GDF metrics for S2S METplus use cases

[DanielAdriaansen]

Describe the New Feature

Plot the TDF/GDF metrics from the METplus use cases (dtcenter/METplus#630, dtcenter/METplus#631).

The plot will be a contour plot, of type raster or "cell" filling, on a global latitude/longitude domain. There could be multiple panels. Types of panels include:

1. Total count of all observed genesis events
2. Total count of all forecasted genesis events
3. Total count of all hits
4. Total count of all misses
5. Total count of all false alarms
6. Total count of all track points within the grid cell

Acceptance Testing

• User configurable latitude bounds
• User configurable number of panels/panel order
• User configurable title strings per panel

Time Estimate

2-4 days of work.

I am working in a branch:
feature_48_s2s_tdf_gdf

I created a conda environment for this work, copied from the met_test user on kiowa:
conda create --name s2stc --clone /home/met_test/.conda/envs/metplus_dev

I installed METplotpy by cloning and adding to my conda env:

git clone [email protected]/dtcenter/METplotpy
cd METplotpy
pip install -e .

I created a new directory here where I will work:
METplotpy/metplotpy/contributed/tc_s2s_panel

@bikegeek what's the preferred way to import my functions?

If my script lives in:
METplotpy/metplotpy/contributed/tc_s2s_panel/plot_tc_s2s_panel.py

What would an import statement look like? Does plot_tc_s2s_panel.py have to conform to some Python standard in order to be "importable"?

[bikegeek]

I forgot to mention that you will need to create an empty file: __init__.py in the directory where your module (that you wish to import) resides. So in METplotpy/metplotpy/contributed/tc_s2s_panel, add a __init__py (and in any subdirectories you create under the tc_s2s_panel). This signals to Python that these modules can be imported. Then, to import: from metplotpy.contributed.tc_s2s_panel import plot_tc_s2s_panel as tc_panel or from metplotpy.contributed.tc_s2s_panel import plot_tc_s2s_panel if you don't like aliases.
