Hi
Are there any modules in matplotlib for coordinate transformations. In particular, I want to go from geodetic to WGS-84.

Thanks
Mathew

Mathew: The pyproj module is included in the basemap toolkit and can be accessed with

from mpl_toolkits.basemap import pyproj

To see how to use it look at the docs for the Proj class at http://pyproj.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/README.html.

If you don't want to install the whole Basemap toolkit (a 100 mb download) you can just install the pyproj module from
