18- strengths : []
19- weaknesses : []
15+ strengths :
16+ - Complete stereonet implementation with all spec features (great circles, poles,
17+ density contours, grid, tick marks, cardinal labels)
18+ - Realistic geological data with three distinct structural domains showing clear
19+ clustering patterns
20+ - Good visual hierarchy with subtle dotted grid, visible poles with white borders,
21+ and green density contours
22+ - Interactive HTML export alongside static PNG is a nice Highcharts-specific addition
23+ weaknesses :
24+ - Does not use highcharts_core Python API; builds raw JSON config instead of using
25+ the library Python classes
26+ - Legend with 7 items in a single horizontal row is cramped and hard to read
27+ - Python 2-style except syntax (except AttributeError, TypeError:) on lines 239
28+ and 260 is a code bug
29+ - Color palette is decent but could be more colorblind-optimized
30+ image_description : ' The plot shows a lower-hemisphere equal-area (Schmidt net) stereonet
31+ projection on a white background. A bold dark circle forms the primitive circle
32+ with tick marks every 10 degrees around the perimeter. Cardinal directions (N,
33+ E, S, W) and degree labels (30, 60, 120, 150, 210, 240, 300, 330) are placed outside
34+ the circle. Inside, subtle dotted concentric circles and radial lines form the
35+ stereonet grid. Three types of structural data are plotted: blue great circle
36+ arcs and poles (Bedding), orange great circle arcs and poles (Joints), and red/pink
37+ great circle arcs and poles (Faults). Bedding poles cluster in the SE quadrant,
38+ Joints poles cluster in the NE quadrant, and Fault poles are scattered on the
39+ E side. Green density contours overlay the pole data highlighting preferred orientations.
40+ A horizontal legend at the bottom lists all 7 series. Title reads "stereonet-equal-area
41+ · highcharts · pyplots.ai" with subtitle "Lower Hemisphere Equal-Area (Schmidt)
42+ Projection".'
