In the tools
sub-package is a module called plot_Bscan
which can be used to plot a B-scan (collection of A-scans) from models. The module takes an argument which is the name of the output file and a further argument which can be any field component or current, i.e. Ex
, Ey
, Ez
, Hx
, Hy
, Hz
, Ix
, Iy
, or Iz
, so long as that component or current was specified in the output in the model.
For example (to use the module outside this notebook) to plot the B-scan of the Ez
component of an output:
python -m tools.plot_Bscan user_models/cylinder_Bscan_2D_merged.out Ez
You can use the following code to experiment (in this notebook) with plotting different field/current components.

%matplotlib inline
import os
from tools.plot_Bscan import get_output_data, mpl_plot
filename = os.path.join(os.pardir, os.pardir, 'user_models', 'cylinder_Bscan_2D_merged.out')
rxnumber = 1
rxcomponent = 'Ez'
outputdata, dt = get_output_data(filename, rxnumber, rxcomponent)
plt = mpl_plot(outputdata, dt, rxnumber, rxcomponent)
# Change from the default 'seismic' colormap
#plt.set_cmap('gray')
