worldrectcoast

cl = worldrectcoast(proj="?", res="crude", coastlines=nothing, limits=Float64[])

Return a project coastline, at res resolution, suitable to overlain in a grid created with the worldrectangular function. Note that this function, contrary to coastlinesproj, returns coastline data that spans > 360 degrees.

• proj: A proj4 string describing the projection (Mandatory).

• res: The GSHHG coastline resolution. Available options are: crude, low, intermediate, high and full

• coastlines: In alternative to the res option, one may pass a GMTdataset with coastlines previously loaded (with gmtread) from another source.

• limits: If not empty it must be a 2 elements array with lon_min, lon_max that is used to ask for coastlines that expand more than 360 degrees (worldrectangular uses this).

Returns

A Vector of GMTdataset containing the projected world GSHHG coastlines at resolution res.
