This seems to be a fairly serious bug. I have a different interpretation for its existence. I think it is due to the mercator projection. The distance is correct when...
Cartopy doesn't have a scalebar function, but here is a 3rd party function that will create one. http://nbviewer.ipython.org/github/pp-mo/iris_example_code/blob/cartopy_scalebar/map_scalebar.ipynb
Here is a code snippet demonstrating the bug which appears in `merc` but not in `ortho`. Latitude degree is 111 km at the equator. I'm making the scale 30*2 degrees...
Perhaps related, the `tissot` function exhibits a similar bug. Add the following two lines to the above code: ``` python m.tissot(0,0,30,90,alpha=0.5) m.tissot(0,45,30,90,alpha=0.5) ``` This should draw a circle with a...
Last comment for a while, in reply to @Rabijns (OP). You say scale is off by 1.6. Your center latitude is 50. Note that `np.cos(50*(pi/180.))` = 0.64, and 1/0.64 =...
This bug report should remain open.
This format is under development by @bavay and [others](https://www.wsl.ch/en/employees/iosifesc.html) at SLF/WSL (can't find their GitHub handle). It's based on [SMET](https://models.slf.ch/docserver/meteoio/SMET_specifications.pdf) and has been proposed to WMO as a standard. Citation...
Note that if you are even considering supporting this file format, the format and required header fields are still in flux/development.
