NAME

       CPCLAM - Adds contour lines to an area map. This is part of the process of drawing a
       solid-fill contour plot.

SYNOPSIS

       CALL CPCLAM (ZDAT, RWRK, IWRK, IAMA)

C-BINDING SYNOPSIS

       #include <ncarg/ncargC.h>

       void c_cpclam (float *zdat, float *rwrk, int *iwrk,
       int *iama)

DESCRIPTION

       The first three arguments are arrays used in the last call to CPRECT, CPSPS1, or CPSPS2,
       the contents of which must not have been changed since that call.

       ZDAT        (REAL array, dimensioned as specified in the last call to CPRECT, CPSPS1, or
                   CPSPS2, input) is the data array.

       RWRK        (REAL array, dimensioned as specified in the last call to CPRECT, CPSPS1, or
                   CPSPS2, input/output) is the real workspace array.

       IWRK        (INTEGER array, dimensioned as specified in the last call to CPRECT, CPSPS1,
                   or CPSPS2, input/output) is the integer workspace array.

       IAMA        (INTEGER array, dimensioned as specified in a call to ARINAM, in the package
                   Areas) is the array containing the area map to which contour lines are to be
                   added.

C-BINDING DESCRIPTION

       The C-binding argument descriptions are the same as the FORTRAN argument descriptions.

USAGE

       The routine CPCLAM, which adds contour lines generated from the data in the array ZDAT to
       the area map in the array IAMA, may be called at any time after the initialization call to
       CPRECT, CPSPS1, or CPSPS2. The area map must previously have been initialized by a call to
       the routine ARINAM in the utility Areas.

       The contour lines added to the area map are as specified by the first 'NCL' elements of
       the parameter arrays 'CLV', 'AIA', and 'AIB'. If 'NCL' is zero, CPPKCL is called to
       generate these values.

       The contour levels defined by the first 'NCL' elements of the parameter array 'CLV' are
       examined.  If a given contour level is associated with a non-zero value of 'AIA' and/or a
       non-zero value of 'AIB', then contour lines at that contour level are added to the area
       map.  If there is an associated non-zero value of 'AIA', it is used as the area identifier
       for the area "above" the line (where field values are greater than they are along the
       line); otherwise, a zero is used.  If there is an associated non-zero value of 'AIB', it
       is used as the area identifier for the area "below" the line (where field values are less
       than they are along the line); otherwise, a zero is used.  Note that a given contour level
       may occur more than once in the internal parameter array 'CLV', but there must be at most
       one non-zero value of 'AIA' and at most one non-zero value of 'AIB' associated with it;
       otherwise, an error exit occurs.

       If the parameter 'T2D' has a non-zero value, the contour lines are smoothed, using cubic
       splines under tension.

       Four other types of lines are added to the area map by CPCLAM: (1) the edge of the current
       viewport and possibly a set of vertical lines within the viewport, (2) the edge of the
       grid, (3) the edges of special-value areas, if any, and (4) the edges of out-of-range
       areas, if any. The area identifier for the outside of the viewport is always -1. You can
       use elements of the parameter array 'AIA' for 'PAI' = -1, -2, and -3 to specify the area
       identifiers to be used for the outside of the grid, the inside of a special-value area,
       and the inside of an out-of-range area, respectively; the default values of all three are
       -1's. Area identifiers for all other sides of these edges are determined from the area-
       identifier information given for the contour levels.

       Lines are added to the area map in the following order:

       •  the edge of the viewport and the vertical lines within it,

       •  the edges of the out-of-range areas, if any,

       •  the edge of the grid,

       •  the edges of the special-value areas, if any, and,

       •  the contour lines, in order of increasing contour level.

       The edge of the viewport may actually be added to the area map twice:

       •  as part of the edge group with group identifier 'GIC', and

       •  as part of the edge group with group identifier 'GIS'.

       Vertical lines, if any, are added with group identifier 'GIS'.

       The object of the edge group with group identifier 'GIS' is to break up the areas
       represented by the area map into smaller pieces. Whether this is done or not is under your
       control, by means of the internal parameters 'NVS' and 'GIS'.  For more information, see
       the descriptions of those internal parameters in the conpack_params man page.

       If, during the last call to CPRECT, CPSPS1 or CPSPS2, the data being contoured were found
       to be essentially constant, then no contour lines are added to the area map; the other
       lines are added, however.
