I would like to plot some lat-lon data in a filled contour, and then
overlay a map of the globe on top. I am trying something like this:

 

filled.contour(lons, lats, glb.data, 
plot.axes={axis(1);axis(2);map(projection='rectangular',parameters=0,add
=T)} 
) 

 

The filled contour plots fine, and the map shows up, but only as a very
tiny little black rectangle in a small area of the contour plot. Of
course, I want the map to stretch over the entire area of the filled
contour plot. 

 

I've also tried something like:

filled.contour(lons, lats, glb.data, 
plot.axes={axis(1);axis(2);map(projection='rectangular',x=lons,y=lats,pa
rameters=0,add=T)} 
) 

 

In this case, the map does not plot at all and I get an error message
"nothing to draw: all regions out of bounds"

 

People apparently do this successfully all the time, but I haven't been
able to get it to work. Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong? BTW, I
don't want to use the lattice package. It will not work with the other
stuff my group is doing. Thanks.
