I just wanted to mention a library called [holoviews](http://ioam.github.io/holoviews/) that seems to implement an very similar set of features as xray with a focus on visualization. It seems that the API from that project is very well suited to plotting higher dimensional data. I also posted about this in the xray google group, but it seems like there is not much traffic there.

xray + matplotlib
Wrap matplotlib using xray metadata
wrap matplotlib methods directly but label axes with xray metadata automatically.  Just like pandas plot method. Ideally, this should use plot submethods like x.plot.contourf() or x.plot_contourf(), similar to plans for pandas.

Grid 2D images easily
Given a 3D DataArray, ""group by"" one dimension on which to show the remaining 2D image for each tick.  These images can simply be wrapped, as in ggplot's facet_wrap.

lower priority: given an nd DataArray, facet_grid on multiple dimensions, showing 2D images on each.

For API inspiration, consider seaborn’s FacetGrid.

Dataset plots will probably also be handy, even if all they do is plotting all the DataArray plots in separate columns (or on top of each other).

Yes, I like the cartopy API better than basemap, because you can just provide an appropriate `ax` argument to matplotlib methods and cartopy does all the coordinate conversions automatically. Basemap requires more boilerplate. My sense is also that cartopy is being more actively developed (Jeff Whitaker is a busy guy!) and hence it probably has more of the edge cases for plotting fixed.

Do you plan on just support plotting at the `DataArray` level or would you also try something that works at the `Dataset` level (for multiple variables)?

@shoyer , do you prefer [cartopy](http://scitools.org.uk/cartopy/docs/latest/matplotlib/intro.html) over [basemap](http://matplotlib.org/basemap/index.html)?  If so, why?
