Plot borders of NaNs region in contour












2














I'm trying to contour plot some data with NaNs (no solution). I want to indicate the border of the NaNs with a black line. So far I've only found how to hatch the whole NaN region (hatch a NaN region in a contourplot in matplotlib) but I just want the outline.



fig, ax = plt.subplots()

d = np.random.rand(10, 10)
d[2, 2], d[3, 5] = np.nan, np.nan

plt.contour(d)
plt.show()


I get:

I would want:

          You could draw another contour of the masked out regions. To this end one would mask the data out with a numpy.ma array. Then use its mask to plot another contour at a level close to (but not exactly) zero.



          import numpy as np
          import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

          fig, ax = plt.subplots()

          d = np.random.rand(10, 10)

          mask = np.zeros(d.shape, dtype=bool)
          mask[2, 2], mask[3, 5] = 1, 1

          masked_d = np.ma.array(d, mask=mask)

          plt.contour(masked_d)

          plt.contour(mask, [0.01], colors="k", linewidths=3)

          plt.show()
