obspy.imaging.cm._get_cmap¶

_get_cmap(file_name, lut=None, reverse=False)[source]¶

Load a LinearSegmentedColormap from segmentdata dictionary saved as numpy compressed binary data.

Parameters:

file_name (str) Name of colormap to load, same as filename in obspy/imaging/data. The type of colormap data is determined from the extension: .npz assumes the file contains colorbar segments (segmented colormap). ‘*.npy’ assumes the file contains a simple array of RGB values with size [ncolors, 3].
lut (int) Specifies the number of discrete color values in the segmented colormap. Only used for segmented colormap None to use matplotlib default value (continuous colormap).
reverse (bool) Whether to return the specified colormap reverted.

Return type:

LinearSegmentedColormap
