Plot Time vs. Azimuth

ds.azimuth.plot(y="time")

[<matplotlib.lines.Line2D at 0x7fb6b3ac1e80>]

Plot Range vs. Time

We need to sort by time and specify the y-coordinate.

ds.DBZH.sortby("time").plot(y="time")

open_furuno_datatree

Furuno scn/scnx files consist only of one sweep. But we might load and combine several sweeps into one DataTree.
