To plot data using Gaussian coordinates in Cartopy, you can follow the steps below:

  1. Define a projection using cartopy.crs.Gaussian.
import cartopy.crs as ccrs
import cartopy.feature as cfeature

# Define projection using Gaussian coordinates
proj = ccrs.Gaussian(latitude_of_projection_origin=0, longitude_of_central_meridian=0)
  1. Create a GeoAxes object with a projection set to the Gaussian projection.
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

fig = plt.figure(figsize=(8, 8))
ax = fig.add_subplot(1, 1, 1, projection=proj)
  1. Plot your data using the plot method on the GeoAxes object.
# Example data array
data = [[1, 2, 3], [4, 5, 6], [7, 8, 9]]

# Plot data using projection coordinates
ax.plot(data)
  1. Add features to the map if desired, such as coastlines or gridlines.
# Add coastlines to map
ax.add_feature(cfeature.COASTLINE)

# Add gridlines to map
gl = ax.gridlines(draw_labels=True)
gl.xlabels_top = False
gl.ylabels_right = False
  1. Finally, show the map using plt.show().
plt.show()
