This package solves two main problems for plots with maps created with cartopy. Because these plots have a fixed aspect ratio (1) colorbars will extend beyond the visible axes and (2) the distance between individual subplots will seemingly be random.

The code to create the examples can be found in docs/example.py.
axes_grid
Matplotlib's axes_grid can also display data with a fixed aspect ratio. However, the size of the figure will not be correct. mplotutils (from version 0.6) can also help with this
| Axes grid - without mplotutils | Axes grid - with mplotutils |

The code to create the example can be found in docs/example_axes_grid.py.
mplotutils (from version 0.6) includes helper functions to draw hatches and add stippling:
The code to create the example can be found in docs/example_hatch.py.
