[needs-packaging] Panoply

[Helder Fraga]

Panoply is a Java application which plots geo-gridded arrays from netCDF, HDF and GRIB datasets. You can:

    * Slice and plot specific latitude-longitude, latitude-vertical, or time-latitude arrays from larger multidimensional variables.
    * Combine two arrays in one plot by differencing, summing or averaging.
    * Plot lon-lat data on a global or regional map (using any of over 75 map projections) or make a zonal average lineplot.
    * Overlay continent outlines or masks on lon-lat plots.
    * Use any ACT, CPT, GGR, or PAL color table for scale colorbar.
    * Save plots to disk GIF, JPEG, PNG or TIFF bitmap images or as PDF or PostScript graphics files.
    * Export lon-lat map plots in KMZ format.

Panoply requires that your computer have a Java 5 runtime environment, or better, installed.
