StereographicPlot.pole_density_function(*args: ndarray | Vector3d, resolution: float = 1, sigma: float = 5, log: bool = False, colorbar: bool = True, weights: ndarray | None = None, **kwargs: Any)[source]#

Compute the Pole Density Function (PDF) of vectors in the stereographic projection. See [Rohrer et al., 2004].

Parameters:

*args: Vector(s), or azimuth and polar angles of the vectors, the latter passed as two separate arguments.
resolution: The angular resolution of the sampling grid in degrees. Default value is 1.
sigma: The angular resolution of the applied broadening in degrees. Default value is 5.
log: If True the log(PDF) is calculated. Default is True.
colorbar: If True a colorbar is shown alongside the PDF plot. Default is True.
weights: The weights for the individual vectors. If not given, the weight of each vector is 1.
**kwargs: Keyword arguments passed to matplotlib.axes.Axes.pcolormesh().
