Hi,

Is it possible to fix the background map. when i am plotting backword

Please help me in fixing my requirement -
background map need to be fixed and i want to plot multiple trajectories on that fixed background map..

Thanks & Regards,

When there is more than one trajectory, the HYSPLIT trajectory plotting program scales the map with respect to the domain of the 1st trajectory to be plotted. If all your trajectories are not on the map, try to "un-zoom", that is use zoom 10% (or less) (-z10). Or manually re-arrange the listing of the endpoints files so that the one covering the most area is first (-itdump2+tdump1 instead of -itdump1+tdump2).
