\section{ColorBrewer}
\def\pgfplotsmanualcurlibrary{colormaps}

{\emph{An extension by Vincent A.\ Traag and Stefan Pinnow}}

\begin{pgfplotslibrary}{colorbrewer}
This library brings the color schemes created by Cynthia Brewer published at
\url{http://colorbrewer2.org/} to PGFPlots. These where originally designed for
cartography needs, but are also used in other kind of data visualization in the
mean time. The ColorBrewer schemes are divided into the types
%
\begin{description}
    \item[sequential] for ordered data progressing from low to high,
    \item[diverging] to highlight changes from a mean value, and
    \item[qualitative] where colors have no special order.
\end{description}
%
They can consist of up to 12 different data classes, i.e. colors, per scheme
and are provided as color maps as well as as cycle lists.

\subsection{Usage}

In the following the available schemes are presented in graphical form as ``swatches''.

\subsubsection*{Color Schemes as ``Swatches''}
\label{sec:pgfplots:brewer:usage}
A swatch is a matrix showing all available colors for a specific scheme, and the available color compilations.

Such swatches are read as follows:
\begin{enumerate}
    \item At the top left of the block you find the (short) name of the scheme.
    \item The following color blocks are the colors the scheme consists of.
    \item To get the (full) color name, combine the (short) scheme name with
        a hyphen and a letter of the first row, e.g. 
		
		|\tikz \fill[color=GnBu-H] (0,0) rectangle (1em,2ex);| 
		
		which results in       \tikz \fill[color=GnBu-H] (0,0) rectangle (1em,2ex);.
    \item To get the full scheme name, which can be used as colormap or cycle
        list, combine the (short) scheme name with a hyphen and a number of
        the first column, e.g. |cycle list name=GnBu-7|. \\
        The special case of using the (short) scheme name only is also
        provided and is an alias for the full scheme name with the highest
        number, e.g. scheme name \texttt{GnBu} equals \texttt{GnBu-9}.
    \item The last row shows a continuous color map based on the previous row,
        that is in the example \texttt{GnBu-9}.
    \item The rest of the matrix shows the colors used in the corresponding
        scheme.
\end{enumerate}


\subsubsection*{Activating Color Schemes}

In order to activate a |colorbrewer| |colormap|, say, |BuGn-5|, you have to use the key

  |colormap/BuGn-5|.

\noindent This will initialize and select the associated |colormap|. It will also initialize the associated |cycle list| (but will not select it).
%
In order to initialize and select the |cycle list| of name |BuGn-5|, you have to use the key

	|cycle list/BuGn-5|.

\noindent This will initialize and select the associated |cycle list|. It will also initialize (but not select) the associated |colormap|.


Note that |cycle list|s shipped with |colorbrewer| merely consist of \emph{colors}. However, a good |cycle list| typically also comes with markers and perhaps line style variations. In order to combine a pure color-based |cycle list| with markers, you should make use of the features |cycle multi list|, |cycle multiindex list|, and
|cycle multiindex* list|, for example using
\begin{codeexample}[code only]
\pgfplotsset{
    % initialize Set1-5:
    cycle list/Set1-5,
    % combine it with 'mark list*':
    cycle multiindex* list={
        mark list*\nextlist
        Set1-5\nextlist
    },
}
\end{codeexample}
\noindent Please refer to the reference manual for |cycle multiindex* list| for details.


\subsection{Sequential Schemes}
	Sequential schemes are useful for ordered data progressing low to high.

\noindent
\begin{tabular}{rrr}
    \MATRIXseq{BuGn}   & \MATRIXseq{PuRd}   & \MATRIXseq{Blues}   \\
    \MATRIXseq{BuPu}   & \MATRIXseq{RdPu}   & \MATRIXseq{Greens}  \\
    \MATRIXseq{GnBu}   & \MATRIXseq{YlGn}   & \MATRIXseq*{Greys}  \\
    \MATRIXseq{OrRd}   & \MATRIXseq{YlGnBu} & \MATRIXseq{Oranges} \\
    \MATRIXseq{PuBu}   & \MATRIXseq{YlOrBr} & \MATRIXseq{Purples} \\
    \MATRIXseq{PuBuGn} & \MATRIXseq{YlOrRd} & \MATRIXseq{Reds}    \\
\end{tabular}


\subsection{Diverging Schemes}
	Diverging schemes highlight changes from some mean value. 

\noindent
\begin{tabular}{rrr}
    \MATRIXdiv{BrBG}   & \MATRIXdiv*{RdGy}   & \MATRIXdiv{RdYlBu} \\
    \MATRIXdiv{PiYG}   & \MATRIXdiv{PuOr}  & \MATRIXdiv{RdYlGn}\\
    \MATRIXdiv{PRGn}   & \MATRIXdiv{RdBu}  & \MATRIXdiv{Spectral}\\
\end{tabular}

	Note that you can adopt |point meta min| and |point meta max| such that the |colormap|'s mean value fits the data (for example by forcing |point meta min=-2| and |point meta max=+2|).


\subsection{Qualitative Schemes}
    Qualitative schemes are useful if colors have no special order, but should be distinguishable.

\noindent
\begin{tabular}{rrr}
    \MATRIXqual{8}{Accent}     & \MATRIXqual{9}{Pastel1}[3] & \MATRIXqual{8}{Pastel2} \\
    \MATRIXqual{8}{Dark2}[1]   & \MATRIXqual{9}{Set1}    & \MATRIXqual{8}{Set2}[4]\\
    \MATRIXqual{12}{Paired}    & \MATRIXqual{12}{Set3} & \\
\end{tabular}



\subsection{Interaction with the ColorBrewer website}

To find a scheme, e.g. the above chosen \texttt{GnBu-7} on
\url{http://colorbrewer2.org/}
%
\begin{itemize}
    \item first select the ``Nature of your data'' type; in this case
        ``sequential'',
    \item then select the ``Number of data classes'', which is 7,
    \item and last select the corresponding scheme in the ``Pick a color
        scheme'' section. (This is a bit tricky, because you can only see the
        name at the top of the lower right corner, where all the colors are
        listed. When you have selected the right one you should read there
        ``7-class GnBu''. But perhaps it helps when you know that ``Gn''
        stands for green and ``Bu'' for blue, so you are searching for a
        scheme going from green to blue, which in this case is the third
        color scheme in the first row of ``Multi-hue''.)
    \item The color names, e.g. \texttt{GnBu-H}, cannot be extracted from the
        page directly though, because you cannot simply count to the number
        and replace it with the corresponding letter. This intentionally was
        avoided, because then one would define the same color multiple times
        with different names, e.g. \texttt{GnBu-H} 3 times.
    \item If you should need let's say the 5th color of the scheme
        \texttt{GnBu-7} you don't have to trial and error or have a look at
        the manual. %
		\pgfplotsset{colormap/GnBu-7}%
		You can simply extract this color from the corresponding
        color map via the \verb|index of colormap| feature, e.g. 
		
		|\tikz \fill[index of colormap={4 of GnBu-7}] (0,0) rectangle (1em,2ex);|

        which results in \tikz \fill[index of colormap={4 of GnBu-7}] (0,0)
        rectangle (1em,2ex);. Note that the index is $4$ instead of $5$ because the index starts
        with $0$. Note furthermore that you have to invoke |\pgfplotsset{colormap/GnBu-7}| before using this key.
\end{itemize}



\subsection{External Examples}

If you want to see some examples, where Brewer has used her schemes, have a
look at \url{https://www.census.gov/population/www/cen2000/atlas/index.html}.

\end{pgfplotslibrary}

\begin{tikzlibrary}{colorbrewer}
	A library which contains just the color definitions like |GnBu-B|. Please refer to Section~\ref{sec:pgfplots:brewer:usage} for a list of available colors.
