Re: State boundaries

Dear ncarg-talkers,

This is an NCL question, so Rick Brownrigg answered in ncl-talk. I thought the answer might be of interest to some ncarg-talk folks as well:

If you have a shapefile of the features you want to draw, checkout the shapefiles' examples page:

http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Applications/shapefiles.shtml

Perhaps example #3 in particular, if all you want to do is draw features (versus, draw/fill based upon database queries).

Hope that helps...
Rick

Unfortunately, the maps provided by NCARG are very generic in South America and only include the country boundaries but not state boundaries. Where can I find them? or can I introduce them into NCL scripts? I have them as shapefiles from GIS. Any idea how?
